Report of the Trustees
for the Year Ended 31st December 2025


The trustees who are also directors of the charity for the purposes of the Companies Act 2006, present their report with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31st December 2025. The trustees have adopted the provisions of 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
Objectives and aims
Principal Activities

The main objectives of fly2help are:

(a) the provision of relief to children and adults in need, by reason of learning or physical disability, life limiting or severe illness, social isolation, bereavement or other distress, by facilitating experiences of flight and aviation that lift their spirits and promote well-being.

(b) the advancement of education in aviation.

During the year under review, fly2help was able to offer its full programme of charitable activities and continued to develop projects and activities that fulfill and enhance our charitable objectives.

Significant activities
Our vision is for everyone to be able to access the positive benefits of aviation; changing lives one flight at a time. We do this by working with pilots, aircraft owners and operators, airfields and aviation companies, as well as many volunteers and supporters, to run Air Smiles Days and the Aim High & Travelling Airport educational & careers programme.

Air Smiles Days are experience days that improve the long-term well-being and self-esteem of children and adults living in difficult personal situations.

Aim High & the Travelling Airport outreach resource encourages and helps to inspire and motivate children and young people in their future careers, particularly within the aviation and aerospace sectors.

ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE
Charitable activities
In 2025, we were able to deliver Air Smiles Days to over 100 beneficiaries with events held at Gloucestershire Airport, Bournemouth Airport, Hawarden and Tattenhall.

In 2025, we continued a full Aim High programme including our Aim High weeks for students aged between 14 and 18 years of age, careers events at schools and delivering our Travelling Airport programmes to mainstream schools and SEND schools. Our aviation education, careers and guidance programme for mainstream schools and young people interested in a career in the aviation industry were funded mainly through our association with The Air Charter Association.

Our outreach resource, the Travelling Airport, has grown in scope and impact giving young people aged 5 to 18 the opportunity to take part in engaging and inspirational activities based around life at a busy airport. The activity is particularly aimed at younger mainstream primary pupils and SEND School pupils and encourages all pupils to take their first steps in thinking about future careers and what the world of work might look like for them.

We bring our Travelling Airport into school and use various activity stations for children to look and understand who and what it takes to get an aircraft off the ground. The activities are fun, practical and highly sensory, engaging pupils from the highest achieving to those who require more support.

For many students it may be their first experience of this type of environment and is particularly valuable for young people with specific disabilities or personal challenges which means they have been excluded from wider experiences that others may take for granted, such as visiting an airport.

Report of the Trustees
for the Year Ended 31st December 2025


ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE
The real-life roleplay is important in helping students overcome anxiety whilst challenging their own preconceptions and physical boundaries by participating in a real-life work experience but from within their own safe and supportive environment.

It is also incredibly valuable in highlighting the range of accessible and achievable jobs and careers within the aviation industry, expanding personal horizons, and encouraging awareness and conversations around achievable future career goals.

For older pupils, we continue to engage with ‘Taster Days’ at local airports, looking at specific careers such as pilots or engineering and also attending careers events within schools to promote these events.

Overall, we were able to directly support over 900 young people through a variety of Aim High and Travelling Airport programmes and over 3000 at school and higher education career events. While fly2help's founders are the first to say that establishing the charity has been a team effort, the Trustees and staff would like to pay tribute to their vision, which has now made a positive difference to so many beneficiaries.

Air Smiles Days

Air Smiles Days are bespoke experience days for children and adults living with profound disability, life limiting conditions, severe illness, bereavement and isolation. Built around a flight in a light aircraft, the days include a variety of different activities that enables our beneficiaries to leave their worries on the ground and enjoy a memorable day with their loved ones.

Our Air Smiles Days programme offers beneficiaries a day of respite from everyday difficulties and isolation in a supportive environment and the impact of this experience continues to build well-being, confidence and courage whilst strengthening the bonds between those taking part, creating lasting memories of happiness to brighten the darkest of days.

We have delivered our Air Smiles Days to individuals, families and larger groups through collaboration with other charities, including Heart Heroes, Gloucestershire Carers and Veteran Carers.

We have also developed a partnership with national car clubs, notably Porsche Club GB and Sporting Bears Dream Rides who have joined us on our Air Smiles Days and provide supercar experiences for families alongside the flights and other activities offered during the events. This additional activity has become very popular with our beneficiaries as the whole group can take part in an additional exciting activity together, and we are very grateful to everyone who has joined us for our events.

We continue to assess both the need and benefit of our Air Smiles Days Programme using our robust impact reporting structure which evaluates the immediate and long-term impact and benefits for our beneficiaries.

Aim High & Travelling Airport

In 2025, we delivered our full programme of Aim High activities, including our Aim High week targeting young people who were interested in careers in the aerospace and aviation industries.

We continued to visit primary schools and particularly SEND (Special Educational Needs and Disabilities) schools and found that the activities we were able to offer were having a profound impact on the participants. We also hosted events at local airports for youth groups such as cubs and beavers, offering younger children an opportunity to see behind the scenes at a working airport and providing inspiration and support to early career ambitions.

The fly2help Aim High Travelling Airport activities continue to align with the vision of Air Smiles, using aviation for the provision of relief to children in need, by reason of learning or physical disability, life limiting or severe illness, social isolation, bereavement or other distress, by facilitating experiences of flight and aviation that lift their spirits and promote well-being. We see that larger groups of younger beneficiaries are able to benefit as much from the Travelling Airport visiting them in their schools, as they might have benefitted from visiting the airport. Our resource allowed them to ‘play’ whilst learning about the incredible benefits of aviation and we are proud of the unique and very special impact of this exciting outreach resource.

Report of the Trustees
for the Year Ended 31st December 2025


ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE

We also remain committed to supporting and inspiring our older children throughout Aim High Career Weeks and we support the belief that the aviation sector still needs passionate and inspirational young people entering the aviation sector. We will continue to offer more targeted events at young people, through taster events and other job specific advice. We use our programmes to continue to inspire young people about new career pathways in aviation and to open discussions around emerging technologies and the future sustainability of the industry, through engagement with pioneering organisations who can provide talks and visits to our students.

Ultimately, fly2help is committed to ensuring that our Aim High and Travelling Airport programmes opens access to the aviation industry for all young people, and our programmes reflect the aims of the industry to be more accessible, inclusive and diverse.

FINANCIAL REVIEW
Financial position
The Trustees have reviewed the financial performance of the charity for the year and are satisfied that its financial position remains appropriate to support its ongoing activities. Total income for the year was £113,569 comprising of restricted funds of £12,000 and unrestricted funds £101,569, compared with £64,907 in the previous year, comprising of restricted funds of £9,569 and unrestricted funds of £55,338 with the principal sources of income being fundraising, events and trusts and grants.

Total expenditure amounted to £117,561 of which £13,000 was restricted and £104,561 unrestricted and was incurred primarily in furtherance of the charity's objectives and the delivery of its activities. Overall, the charity recorded a deficit of £3,992 for the year, which was broadly in line with expectations. Further details of income and expenditure are set out in the accompanying financial statements. At the year end, the charity held total unrestricted reserves of £65,851

The Trustees have considered the level of reserves held in the context of the charity's reserves policy, anticipated commitments and future funding requirements, and consider that the activities planned for the coming year will see a reduction in the level of restricted funds required.

Principal funding sources
fly2help has also received donations from individuals, companies, groups and associations and professional organisations which have provided funding to deliver the Aim High Travelling Airport to SEND Pupils in 2025.

In 2025 we were once again chosen as Charity of the Year by ACA (the Air Charter Association) and were the recipients of donations from their fundraising events throughout the year for which we remain extremely grateful.

We were also proud to be the chosen charity of the BA High Flight Pilots charity which supported many of our Air Smiles Days. We also received a number of trusts and grants, notably from The Red Arrows Trust for our Aim High Educational and Careers Programme, The High Sheriff of Gloucestershire Grant Programme, Gloucestershire Masonic Charity, Gloucester Rotary Club, Renishaw and RGV Aviation.

We are extremely grateful to all those organisations that continue to support and raise money for fly2help.

We were also able to deliver our own fundraising events: a successful WingWalk and the fly2help Gloucestershire Winter Ball in December 2025.

fly2help has continued to work with many aviation companies which support our Air Smiles Days or Aim High programmes and this year we are particularly grateful to Gloucestershire Airport, Bournemouth Airport, Cotswold Aero Club, 80:20 Comms, Skyborne Airline Academy, RGV Engineering, Heliflight, Weston Aviation and many more.

We thank them all for their support.

fly2help traditionally receives considerable gifts in kind support of donated flights, volunteer pilots and other volunteers who give their professional skills free of charge, we remain deeply grateful to all our supporters and look forward to working with them further in 2025.

FINANCIAL REVIEW
Reserves policy
Purpose
The purpose of the fly2help reserves policy is to ensure fly2help maintains sufficient financial reserves to safeguard its operations, support its sustainability and manage unforeseen financial challenges. This policy establishes guidelines for maintaining an appropriate level of unrestricted reserves to cover core operational costs for a defined period.

Definition of Reserves
Reserves are defined as unrestricted funds that are freely available to fly2help to use for general purposes. These funds are not restricted by donors or external parties.

Target Level of Reserves
fly2help aims to maintain reserves equivalent to six months of core operational costs. Core costs include essential expense required to sustain the organisations day to day activities such as:
- Staff salaries
- Rent and utilities
- Administrative expenses

Calculation of Core Costs
Core costs will be calculated annually based on the charity's budget and financial forecast. The reserve target will be set at 50% of the total annual core costs to ensure coverage for six months.

Purpose and Use of Reserves
Reserves will be set as a financial buffer to:
- Maintain financial stability during periods of unexpected revenue shortfalls
- Provide working capital for operational continuity
- Support the charity in managing risks and responding to unforeseen emergencies.

Use of reserves outside of these circumstances must be approved by the Board of Trustees and accompanied by a clear plan to restore reserves within an agreed timeframe.

Monitoring & Review
The Finance Sub-committee will monitor reserve levels quarterly and report to the Board. The reserves policy and target level will be reviewed annually as part of the budgeting process to ensure alignment with fl2yhelp's financial stability and strategic objectives.

Responsibilities
- The Finance Sub-committee is responsible for recommending reserve levels and monitoring compliance
-The Board of Trustees is responsible for approving reserves policy and any significant use of reserves.

This policy was approved by the Board of Trustees on 19th November 2025 and will be reviewed annually

Report of the Trustees

FUTURE PLANS
During 2026, fly2help’s strategic focus will be to strengthen the charity by returning to the core programmes that have traditionally defined our work. Our approach has been to concentrate our resources on delivering what we do well, ensuring that our programmes remain meaningful, sustainable and capable of creating a lasting impact for our beneficiaries.

This renewed focus is centred on our three established programmes: Air Smiles, Aim High and Travelling Airport.

Air Smiles

fly2help will continue to deliver its traditional Air Smiles experience days, using the power of aviation to create positive memories for children, young people and families experiencing difficult or challenging circumstances.

Activities may include flying experiences, airport visits and carefully selected ground-based aviation opportunities. This flexibility enables us to provide inclusive experiences that reflect the individual needs and circumstances of each family.

We will continue to work closely with aviation organisations, volunteers, charities and referral partners to ensure that Air Smiles reaches those who will benefit most.

Aim High

A key priority for 2026 is the expansion of our Aim High programme. We plan to deliver more Aim High activities throughout the year, providing young people with meaningful access to aviation careers, workplaces and industry professionals.

Our programmes will include:

- structured work experience programmes;
- career and education days;
- aviation workplace visits;
- practical workshops and demonstrations;
- mentoring and engagement with aviation professionals; and
- career-specific taster sessions.

We will continue to prioritise young people who may experience barriers to accessing these opportunities, including those with disabilities, additional needs, social anxiety or challenging social circumstances.

By offering more frequent and focused programmes, we aim to increase young people’s confidence, broaden their understanding of the aviation industry and help them identify realistic routes into further education, training and employment.

Travelling Airport

During 2026, fly2help will continue to develop the Travelling Airport programme, building on its successful delivery within primary and SEND schools.

The programme takes an accessible and interactive airport experience directly into schools. Children can participate in activities based around check-in, security, boarding, air traffic control, passenger safety and the wide range of roles found within an airport.

We plan to further develop the programme’s resources, activities and sensory adaptations so that it can be delivered effectively to children with a wide range of ages, abilities and additional needs.

We will also explore opportunities to create stronger links between Travelling Airport and our other programmes. This may include progression from a school-based session to an airport visit or, where appropriate, participation in a future Aim High programme.

Partnerships and Communications

Our relationships with aviation organisations, schools, charities, funders and volunteers remain central to the successful delivery of our work.

During 2026, we will continue to strengthen existing partnerships while developing new relationships that can provide expertise, venues, equipment, volunteers, sponsorship and experiences for our beneficiaries.

Our communications and social media activity will support this work by:

- increasing awareness of fly2help and its programmes;
- celebrating the achievements of our beneficiaries;
- demonstrating the positive social impact of aviation;
- recognising the contribution of our partners and volunteers; and
- supporting fundraising and beneficiary recruitment.

Our communications will continue to reinforce the aviation industry as a force for positive change, opportunity, inclusion and community engagement.

STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT
Governing document
The charity is controlled by its governing document, a deed of trust, and constitutes a limited company, limited by guarantee, as defined by the Companies Act 2006.

Charity constitution
fly2help is a registered charity (number 1119846) and its governing document was adopted on 29 April 2006 and amended by written resolution on 14 June 2008 and 5 February 2014. It is also a company limited by guarantee.

The Trustees are appointed by the Board and serve for an initial term of three years, which can be renewed for one further term of three years. All new Trustees meet the Chairman and Manager to discuss their appointment and are provided with a detailed written briefing on the role of the charity and the responsibilities of charity trustees. They also receive copies of the Articles of Association, the Annual Accounts of previous years and the Strategic Plan. All Trustees are asked to declare any possible conflicts of interest resulting from their involvement in fly2help or other organisation and a register of these interests is maintained at the charity's office.

The day-to-day management of the charity in the year under review was carried out by Sharon Walters, working with one contractor. The Board of Trustees retained responsibility for the overall strategic direction of the charity and its governance.

STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT
Risk management
The trustees have a duty to identify and review the risks to which the charity is exposed and to ensure appropriate controls are in place to provide reasonable assurance against fraud and error.

FUTURE RISK
The renewed delivery of fly2help's core charitable programmes has resulted in increasing interest from individuals, schools, charities and other organisations. While this demonstrates the continued need for our work, it also presents challenges around funding, staffing capacity and the sustainable management of programme growth.

The fundraising environment remains competitive. Charities are experiencing greater demand for grants and donations, while trusts, foundations, businesses and individual donors face growing pressure on the funds they can contribute.

The continuing effects of increased living and operating costs may also affect fly2help through higher programme, travel, insurance, venue, equipment and administrative expenses.

To reduce these risks, fly2help will continue to:

o focus resources on its established and most effective charitable programmes;
o carefully manage the pace and scale of programme growth;
o use appropriately trained volunteers to support programme delivery and administration;
o outsource specialist or non-core functions where this represents better value;
o develop digital and community-based fundraising opportunities;
o seek grants, corporate partnerships and programme sponsorship;
o secure gifts in kind, donated services, venues and equipment wherever possible;
o maintain strong relationships with aviation partners and supporters; and
o regularly review programme costs, risks and outcomes.

A further risk is that increased demand may exceed the charity's available staff, volunteer support and financial capacity. Programmes will therefore be planned according to the resources available, ensuring that the quality, safeguarding and inclusivity of our activities are not compromised.

fly2help believes its plans for 2026 are achievable. By stripping back to our traditional programmes, concentrating on what we do best and building carefully from strong foundations, the charity will be better placed to deliver sustainable growth.

The close relationship between Air Smiles, Aim High and Travelling Airport provides a clear and coherent pathway through which children, young people and families can experience aviation, discover opportunities and build confidence. The positive impact of these programmes continues to demonstrate the significant social value of fly2help's work.
