POWER TO INSPIRE
TRUSTEES' REPORT (INCLUDING DIRECTORS' REPORT)
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2025
- 1 -

The trustees present their annual report and financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2025.

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies set out in note 1 to the financial statements and comply with the charity's governing document, the Companies Act 2006 and "Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2019)".

Objectives and activities

Power2Inspire's vision is of a society where everyone can enjoy inclusive sport together, or as we say, “No one left on the bench”. Our mission is to embed inclusive sport in communities by delivering events for everyone to enjoy:

- PowerHouseGames

- Games2Inspire

- Festivals of Inclusive Sport, including the SuperSensory1K

Inspired by our founder's experience of not being allowed to join in sport with his non-disabled friends, Power2Inspire is committed to creating sporting opportunities for all. This includes encouraging everyone regardless of age, gender, race, faith, or (dis)ability, to play sport together.

We primarily deliver PowerHouseGames in university and large sporting venues, enabling use of inclusive sports such as sitting volleyball, new age kurling, walking football, goalball and boccia. Events are adapted to suit each occasion and bring together university students, school pupils from state, independent and SEN schools, community groups and corporate partners.

Games2Inspire demonstrate inclusive and adapted sports within mainstream schools, ensuring the participation of disabled pupils and those with additional needs alongside their peers.

Festivals of Inclusive Sport focus on a single sport, ensuring that people of all abilities play together in a truly integrated environment.

Public benefit

In carrying out these activities, the trustees have had due regard to the Charity Commission’s guidance on public benefit and are satisfied that the charity’s objectives and activities further the advancement of health and education for the public benefit.

Achievements and performance
Significant activities and achievements against objectives

2025 was a year of strategic rebalancing and focused growth. The charity increased delivery of its flagship PowerHouseGames while refining and targeting its Games2Inspire programme to ensure sustainability and depth of impact.

PowerHouseGames

We delivered 30 PowerHouseGames in 2025 (2024: 23), engaging 1,885 participants (2024: 1,401).

This represents significant growth in our core delivery model, over 30%. Growth was achieved primarily through repeat bookings at established venues and strengthened relationships with universities, schools and community partners, some in new locations. PowerHouseGames continue to demonstrate their effectiveness in bringing disabled and non-disabled participants together in genuinely inclusive sporting environments.

Games2Inspire

Games2Inspire totalled 17 delivery days in 2025 (2024: 20), reaching 2,113 participants (2024: 3,499).

The reduction reflects a strategic decision to prioritise sustainable school partnerships and depth of engagement. Schools continue to operate within constrained academic timetables and budget pressures, and the charity has focused on working where inclusive sport can be embedded most effectively.

Festivals of Inclusive Sport

In 2025, we delivered two Festivals of Inclusive Sport:

- Inclusive Tennis Festival – 50 participants

- SuperSensory1K – 80 participants

Together these engaged 130 participants.

Overall Delivery

In total, the charity delivered 49 events in 2025 (2024: 50), reaching 4,128 participants (2024: 5,441).

While overall participation was lower than the exceptional 2024 total, activity composition shifted meaningfully:

- Increased PowerHouseGames delivery

- Consolidation of Festival activity

- Targeted Games2Inspire engagement

This reflects a deliberate focus on sustainable growth, quality of delivery and financial resilience.

Summary of Events and Attendance

Activity | 2025 Events | 2025 Attendees | 2024 Events | 2024 Attendees
PowerHouseGames | 30 | 1,885 | 23 | 1,401
Games2Inspire | 17 | 2,113 | 20 | 3,499
Festival of Inclusive Sports | 1 | 50 | 1 | 36
SuperSensory1Ks | 1 | 80 | 6 | 505
Total | 49 | 4,128 | 50 | 5,441

Though the numbers are important it is the impact of the events that fulfils the charity’s mission. These are a few quotes from the year:

“The best day of my life”, SEND student at a PowerHouseGames

“It just breaks down barriers. Everyone has a smile on their face and everyone’s encouraging each other.” Teacher independent school at PowerHouseGames

“An amazing opportunity for our children to experience something that otherwise, within our school environment we just wouldn’t be able to offer them. Truly inspiring.” Head of independent school.

“I’ve got one girl here who doesn’t do PE at school because she finds it overwhelming. She’s never been before, yet here she is joining in! It’s so great for their social skills – learning to deal with people from different backgrounds, ages and needs.”” PE teacher

“This is such a valuable experience for our students to socialise and interact with people from all walks of life in a totally inclusive event. Our students treasure this experience and it often inspires them to challenge themselves further both socially and physically in new environments.” PE lead SEND school.

Financial review

Income and Expenditure | 2025 £000 | 2024 £000
Income | 108 | 122
Expenditure | (110) | (106)
Surplus/(Deficit) | (2) | 16

Income reflected continued support from donors, grant-making bodies and partner organisations, alongside revenue associated with event delivery.

Expenditure remained aligned with activity levels and was carefully monitored in light of wider economic pressures.

The trustees remain committed to increasing revenue per day of activity to build reserves and strengthen long-term sustainability.

Balance Sheet | 2025 £000 | 2024 £000
Fixed assets | 0 | 0
Current assets | 31 | 35
Current liabilities | (13) | (16)
Net assets | 18 | 19

The year generated a small reduction in net assets, reflecting careful management of costs alongside continued delivery activity and investment in sustainable growth. The trustees continue to focus on strengthening the charity’s financial resilience by increasing revenue generated per day of activity through a balanced mix of grants, donations and earned income.

Reserves policy

The majority of the charity’s funding continues to come from donations and grants. Given the variable nature of fundraising income, the trustees maintain reserves to support financial sustainability.

It is the policy of the trustees that reserves representing three to six months’ expenditure should be held. The trustees will continue to monitor reserves in line with planned activity levels and committed costs.

Major risks

The trustees have assessed the major risks to which the charity is exposed, and are satisfied that systems are in place to mitigate exposure to the major risks.

The t rustees are responsible for ensuring effective risk management, and that internal controls are in place to appropriately manage the risk exposure of Power To Inspire. The main risks faced by the charity are "Loss of fundraising income"; and "Safeguarding" failures.

We aim to diversify our sources of funding by reaching out to a wide range of organisations including Government, schools, other charities, businesses and individuals, so we are not dependent upon one source of funding for all our activities. When we run our events, which by design include vulnerable people, young and old, we do this in partnership with schools and other organisations so that professional safeguarding standards are maintained throughout.

POWER TO INSPIRE
TRUSTEES' REPORT (INCLUDING DIRECTORS' REPORT) (CONTINUED)
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2025
- 4 -

The key risks faced by the charity and its mitigations of those risks are set out below.

Risk 1 - Safeguarding, an incident occurs at an event involving a child or vulnerable adult.

Mitigation - Safeguarding policy set and followed; liaison with schools and other participating organisations to draw on their safeguarding expertise. A specialist sub-committee reviews best practice, any incidents and the charity’s policy, and reports to the Board at every meeting.

Risk 2 - Failure to find sufficient funds to cover costs.

Mitigation - Fundraising plan agreed; finances monitored and actions agreed by the Board; indirect costs minimised. A sub-committee reviews sources of income and expenditure and reports to the Board regularly.

Risk 3 - Failure to find sponsors for PowerHouseGames.

Mitigation - Events and finances planned in advance and only go ahead if finances are satisfactory.

Risk 4 - Loss of Founder & Chief Ambassador.

Mitigation - Broaden and strengthen Board diversity and skills; maintain appropriate staffing capacity and governance structures, including a separate CEO role to lead the charity; and maintain succession planning. The charity continues to develop a wider team of ambassadors to support event delivery and reduce dependence on any one individual as geographical coverage increases.

Risk 5 - Unable to run events due to unforeseen circumstances, including wider economic, health or other external disruption.

Mitigation - Maintain contact with participating organisations and delivery partners; plan events and staffing with appropriate contingency; minimise indirect costs; and invest in marketing, communications and relationship management to support a resilient pipeline of activity.

Risk 6 - Lack of demand for events.

Mitigation - Feedback taken at events and learning taken; investment in PR and communications.

Risk 7 - Board does not have the skills to run the organisation.

Mitigation - Skills matrix; recruitment drive, including specialist expertise; trustee training opportunities.

Risk 8 - CEO does not deliver on strategy set by the Board.

Mitigation - Scheme of delegation of authority; clear strategy set; performance measured against strategy at Board meetings.

Plans for future periods

The trustees reviewed strategy in January 2026 and are committed to an ambitious growth strategy.

Priorities for 2026 are:

- Increasing PowerHouseGames to a target of 40 games in 2026, at both repeat and new venues.

- Maintaining or modestly increasing Games2Inspire and Festivals of Inclusive Sport.

- Adopting “Hub” model in key areas, such as Cambridge, Kent and West Midlands.

- Strengthen corporate offering focussed on impactful volunteering in addition to financial sponsorship.

Fundraising

Fundraising has been undertaken by staff, trustees and volunteers. The charity has not used professional fundraisers during the year.

The charity adheres to the Code of Fundraising Practice and is committed to protecting vulnerable donors. No complaints relating to fundraising were received during 2025.

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT
TO THE TRUSTEES OF POWER TO INSPIRE
- 6 -

I report to the trustees on my examination of the financial statements of Power to Inspire (the charity) for the year ended 31 December 2025.

Responsibilities and basis of report

As the trustees of the charity (and also its directors for the purposes of company law), you are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006.

Having satisfied myself that the financial statements of the charity are not required to be audited under Part 16 of the Companies Act 2006 and are eligible for independent examination, I report in respect of my examination of the charity’s financial statements carried out under section 145 of the Charities Act 2011. In carrying out my examination I have followed the Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Charities Act 2011.

Independent examiner's statement

I have completed my examination. I confirm that no matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe that in any material respect:

1

accounting records were not kept in respect of the charity as required by section 386 of the Companies Act 2006.

2

the financial statements do not accord with those records; or

3

the financial statements do not comply with the accounting requirements of section 396 of the Companies Act 2006 other than any requirement that the financial statements give a true and fair view, which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination; or

4

the financial statements have not been prepared in accordance with the methods and principles of the Statement of Recommended Practice for accounting and reporting by charities applicable to charities preparing their financial statements in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102).

I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the financial statements to be reached.

Accounting policies
Charity information

Power to Inspire is a private company limited by guarantee incorporated in England and Wales. The registered office is South Barn, Church Farm, Royston Lane, Comberton, Cambridge, CB23 7EE, United Kingdom.

1.1
Accounting convention

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the charity's governing document, the Companies Act 2006 and "Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2019)". The charity is a Public Benefit Entity as defined by FRS 102.

The charity has taken advantage of the provisions in the SORP for charities applying FRS 102 Update Bulletin 1 not to prepare a Statement of Cash Flows.

The financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the charity. Monetary a mounts in these financial statements are rounded to the nearest £.

The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention. The principal accounting policies adopted are set out below.

1.2
Going concern

At the time of approving the financial statements, the trustees have a reasonable expectation that the charity has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Thus the trustees continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements.

1.3
Charitable funds

Unrestricted funds are available for use at the discretion of the trustees in furtherance of their charitable objectives.

Restricted funds are subject to specific conditions by donors or grantors as to how they may be used. The purposes and uses of the restricted funds are set out in the notes to the financial statements.

1.4
Income
Income is recognised when the charity is legally entitled to it after any performance conditions have been met, the amounts can be measured reliably, and it is probable that income will be received.

Cash donations are recognised on receipt. Other donations are recognised once the charity has been notified of the donation, unless performance conditions require deferral of the amount. Income tax recoverable in relation to donations received under Gift Aid or deeds of covenant is recognised at the time of the donation.

Legacies are recognised on receipt or otherwise if the charity has been notified of an impending distribution, the amount is known, and receipt is expected. If the amount is not known, the legacy is treated as a contingent asset.

(Continued)
- 10 -
1.5
Expenditure

Expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to transfer economic benefit to a third party, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement, and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably.

Expenditure is classified by activity. The costs of each activity are made up of the total of direct costs and shared costs, including support costs involved in undertaking each activity. Direct costs attributable to a single activity are allocated directly to that activity. Shared costs which contribute to more than one activity and support costs which are not attributable to a single activity are apportioned between those activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources. Central staff costs are allocated on the basis of time spent, and depreciation charges are allocated on the portion of the asset’s use.

Liabilities are recognised as expenditure as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to that expenditure, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all cost related to the category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated to activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources.

1.6
Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include cash in hand, deposits held at call with banks, other short-term liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less, and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are shown within borrowings in current liabilities.

1.7
Financial instruments

The charity has elected to apply the provisions of Section 11 ‘Basic Financial Instruments’ and Section 12 ‘Other Financial Instruments Issues’ of FRS 102 to all of its financial instruments.

Financial instruments are recognised in the charity's balance sheet when the charity becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.

Financial assets and liabilities are offset, with the net amounts presented in the financial statements, when there is a legally enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.

Basic financial assets

Basic financial assets, which include debtors and cash and bank balances, are initially measured at transaction price including transaction costs and are subsequently carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the transaction is measured at the present value of the future receipts discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial assets classified as receivable within one year are not amortised.

Basic financial liabilities

Basic financial liabilities, including creditors and bank loans are initially recognised at transaction price unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the debt instrument is measured at the present value of the future p aymen ts discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial liabilities classified as payable within one year are not amortised.

Debt instruments are subsequently carried at amortised cost, using the effective interest rate method.

Trade creditors are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of operations from suppliers. Amounts payable are classified as current liabilities if payment is due within one year or less. If not, they are presented as non-current liabilities. Trade creditors are recognised initially at transaction price and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.

- 11 -
Derecognition of financial liabilities

Financial liabilities are derecognised when the charity’s contractual obligations expire or are discharged or cancelled.

1.8
Employee benefits

The cost of any unused holiday entitlement is recognised in the period in which the employee’s services are received.

Termination benefits are recognised immediately as an expense when the charity is demonstrably committed to terminate the employment of an employee or to provide termination benefits.

1.9
Retirement benefits

Payments to defined contribution retirement benefit schemes are charged as an expense as they fall due.

2
Critical accounting estimates and judgements

In the application of the charity’s accounting policies, the trustees are required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amount of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised where the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods where the revision affects both current and future periods.
