## Notes to the Financial Statements

for the Period Ended 31 July 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, net of discounts and value added taxes. Turnover includes revenue earned from the rendering of services, which is recognised by reference to the stage of completion of the contract. The stage of completion of a contract is measured by comparing the costs incurred for work performed to date to the total estimated contract costs.

  Other accounting policies

  Going concern - The directors will continue to support the company Debtors - Short term debtors are measured at transaction price (which is usually the invoice price), less any impairment losses for bad and doubtful debts. Creditors - Short term creditors are measured at transaction price (which is usually the invoice price). Taxation - A current tax liability is recognised for the tax payable on the taxable profit of the current and past periods. A current tax asset is recognised in respect of a tax loss that can be carried back to recover tax paid in a previous period. Deferred tax is recognised in respect of all timing differences between the recognition of income and expenses in the financial statements and their inclusion in tax assessments. Unrelieved tax losses and other deferred tax assets are recognised only 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 and that are expected to apply to the reversal of the timing difference, except for revalued land and investment property where the tax rate that applies to the sale of the asset is used. Current and deferred tax assets and liabilities are not discounted.

# COMMUNITY INTEREST ANNUAL REPORT

### PROJECT27 CONSULTANCY GROUP C.I.C.

### Company Number: 15018081 (England and Wales)

### Year Ending: 31 July 2025

Company activities and impact

Project27 is a Community Interest Company committed to enhancing accessibility and inclusive skills development for blind and partially sighted individuals, as well as people with learning disabilities. Our work is structured into two main areas: 1. Consultancy Services: We collaborate with organisations, research institutions, and businesses to improve accessibility in data visualisation, media production, and research communication. We provide expert guidance on designing accessible information and offer training to professionals seeking to embed accessibility in their work. 2. Community Services: We run initiatives that empower disabled individuals with creative and technical skills, enabling them to engage in digital storytelling, multimedia production, and self-advocacy. These activities foster independence, inclusion, and better representation in creative and professional spaces. Between July 2024 and July 2025, we continued focusing on delivering impact through small consultancy projects, academic collaborations, and stakeholder engagement. Notable activities included: - Accessible Data Visualisation Consultancy: We advised research groups on making complex data more accessible to blind users. This included an ongoing collaboration with the University of Utah to explore innovative approaches to accessible tactile chart design. - Interactive Art and Storytelling for Awareness: We continued to partner with Level3 Productions, a local social enterprise, to develop an interactive media installation. The project follows the experiences of a blind individual and a person with learning disabilities, raising awareness of accessibility challenges while documenting the creative process behind inclusive media production. - Training and Skills Development: We continued to provide training in multimedia and storytelling for learning-disabled individuals, equipping them with tools to enhance self-advocacy through creative expression, in partnership with This New Ground. - Access consultancy: We engaged with community groups, access consultants, and research institutions to better understand accessibility gaps and refine our approach to delivering impactful community services. Our work has been recognised by esteemed institutions such as the University of Utah and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, as well as community organisations like This New Ground and Level3 Productions. We have also received non-financial support to grow our business from the Sussex Innovation Centre through the UK Shared Prosperity Fund.

Consultation with stakeholders

Project27 engages a diverse group of stakeholders, including disabled individuals, research institutions, charitable organisations, and community partners. Our key stakeholders include: - End-Users: Blind or partially sighted individuals and people with learning disabilities who benefit directly from our services. - Research and Academic Institutions: Collaborators such as the University of Utah and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, who engage with us on accessibility-focused research. - Charitable Organisations: Groups such as Look UK, Blind in Business, Thomas Pocklington Trust, Carousel, This New Ground, and Level3 Productions, who support or represent the disabled community. - Funding and Business Development Partners: Organisations such as the Sussex Innovation Centre, which have provided non-financial and strategic support. Throughout the year, we actively sought input from our stakeholders through: 1. Strengthening Academic Collaborations: We assigned the company directors to under-take a research sabbatical at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in order to develop strategic academic partnerships and shape the accessibility research agenda. 2. Development of a Theory of Change: We continued refining a Theory of Change to better articulate how Project27 creates impact and to define measurable outcomes for our interventions. Stakeholder feedback highlighted several areas of importance related to the design of our community services: 1. Research Translation: Our academic collaborators advised us to separate the re-search, and research translation functions of our services. In future, the consultancy and community services related to academic outputs will emphasise activities around research translation and innovation. As we continue refining our services, we will: 1. Develop a research translation framework within the consultancy arm of the business. 2. Conduct more accessibility and inclusive design consultancy projects, generating higher revenue to finance community services more effectively. 3. Finalise and integrate our Theory of Change to measure and communicate our impact more effectively. 4. Expand our advisory board to include a broader range of lived experiences and expertise.
