Principal activities of the company
Additional information
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 efficient use of resource. Grant funded work We have been operating a National Lottery Community Funded - (Awards for All) new project 'Adventures that Change' which has extended the work from our previous project Adventure70 piece. This has enabled us to continue provision to our partners and deliver benefit to individuals and communities. 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 Deaf Village NorthWest, Pendle YESHub, Active Lancashire, Experience Wild Ingleborough, Keighley PhotoHub (now Photohub North), 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 affiliations 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.

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 2025 has been another 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. We continue to work to enable even more people to get outdoors, active and connected. We hope to further develop this work as we enter FY2026. Alongside the other contacts that we held we have also developed other income streams and networks to meet the needs of other communities. In 2025 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 350 people. We have also put in place the structures by which we can continue to seek and deliver similar work, both as a separate entity and in partnership with other organisations.
Our consultations thus far have all been either held amongst the directors of Move2Change or with potential partners in future work. At this stage of the company’s development we have not generated sufficient activity to form stakeholder relationships that would warrant formal consultations.
Two directors have received some remuneration in the form of paid freelance leader work to deliver projects/contracts (and to manage our TNLF project see account notes). The total remuneration received by directors in the year was: Martin Sadler (SMART Training) £5,000 Rob Gale (alert training) £4,572.51
No transfer of assets other than for full consideration
