During the financial year, BMABA CIC continued to operate for the primary benefit of the martial arts community and the wider public by raising safeguarding, governance, and welfare standards across grassroots martial arts clubs in the UK. The organisation provided accessible compliance frameworks, safeguarding training, and structured oversight to thousands of instructors, assistant instructors, and volunteers, helping clubs meet recognised best-practice standards in child protection, inclusion, risk management, and ethical coaching. BMABA CIC delivered nationally recognised safeguarding, first aid, concussion awareness, trauma-informed coaching, and leadership training, with a strong focus on protecting children, at-risk adults, and volunteers. Through its digital platforms and compliance systems, the organisation enabled small, volunteer-led clubs to implement policies, maintain records, and demonstrate good governance without financial or administrative barriers. This has directly contributed to safer training environments, improved accountability, and increased public confidence in community martial arts provision.
BMABA CIC maintains ongoing and active engagement with its stakeholders. This includes continuous consultation with its membership of instructors, assistant instructors, and volunteers through platform feedback, support interactions, surveys, working groups, and direct consultation on policy and system development. Feedback gathered from members is routinely used to inform improvements to safeguarding processes, training provision, and digital systems. In addition, BMABA CIC actively participates in sector-wide collaboration through membership and engagement with the Martial Arts Safeguarding Group (MASG) and works closely with SCiMA on safeguarding standards, certification, and sector alignment. These relationships provide structured consultation with external stakeholders, safeguarding professionals, and partner organisations, ensuring BMABA CIC’s activities remain informed by best practice, regulatory expectations, and the evolving needs of the martial arts community.
The total amount paid or receivable by directors in respect of qualifying services was £46,950.
