    THE DIRECTORS' REPORT

    YEAR ENDED 28 FEBRUARY 2010

    PRINCIPAL ACTIVITIES

    CONSTITUTION OF THE CHARITY

    CHARITY OBJECTIVES

    The Charitys principal objectives are as follows:

    To foster and support the education, health, opportunity and development of children and young people.

    There has been no change in the Charitys objectives during the year.

    The Charity continues to be run by the Board of Directors and Trustees

    REVIEW FOR THE YEAR INCORPORATING ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE

    Introduction

    Progress and Key Achievements this Year

    1. CC Works Charity Consultancy

    The turndown in the economy has challenged many charit ies in the Third Sector and many have had to make across-the board

    redundancies. Charities are receiving fewer donations and the general demand on all organisations is to look carefully at costs and

    expenditure, making economies where they can. At COUI UK we, too, have felt the challenge and have worked hard to lower operating

    and staff costs.

    A large part of our work with Impetus was a three year business plan that is ambitious and intends to make up for the defic it of this

    financial year. We feel confident that this next financial year will see COUI breaking even at the very least. Additonally, Impetus has

    provided pro bono business expert associates in the following areas: finance, strategy consultants, HR, business development, PR andmarketing.

    COUI commissioned CC Works consultancy to prepare a three year fundraising strategy for us. The author of this strategy, a senior

    fundraiser, was then contracted to work three days a week with the charity. Already 145,000 corporate sponsorship from J P Morgan

    has been achieved since the year end. The current objective for fundraising is to generate more grants and corporate donors to

    supplement the cuts all local government bodies are experiencing.

    COUI UK was successful in achieving success with its trial year partnership with Impetus and we are now forming a 3-5 year

    partnership. The Impetus Trust applies a venture philanthropy model combining strategic funding and expertise to charities that have a

    significant impact on the lives of economically disadvantaged people. We are grateful to have the opportunity of support from Impetus

    to evolve from being a small charity (1 million turnover per year) to a medium sized one (3-4 miilion annual turnover).

    2. Partnership with the Impetus Trust

    The Board of Directors and the Trustees of Children: Our Ultimate Investment (UK) Limited for the purposes of charity law, have

    pleasure in presenting their report together with the audited financial statements of the Charity for the year ended 28 February 2010.

    The Charity is a company limited by guarantee and is governed by the Rules and Regulations of the Memorandum and Articles of

    Association incorporated on 24 May 2000. The power of appointing and removing Directors and Trustees from the Board is vested in

    the Board of Directors and Trustees. Membership is non-transferable and ceases upon death. A maximum of seven and a minimum oftwo members are required at all times.

    The Charity has the power to invest monies, not immediately required for the furtherance of its objectives, in such investments,

    securit ies or property as it thinks fit, subject to a statutory requirements. Currently the Charity has not invested any monies for

    investment, but has surplus money transferred to a fixed rate deposit account with Barclays Bank Plc.

    To meet these objectives the Charity continues to promote, initiate, develop and carry out education and training and arrange and

    provide assistance at lectures, seminars and classes for children and young people. Its primary activity is the Teens & Toddlers project

    and the Teens & Toddlers Sustainability Replication Programme.

    With the ending of our major four year funding from the ARK (December 2009), COUI UK attempted to be as proactive as possible in

    preparation for this. We have continued to maintain our growth and positive impact throughout the year. There has been further

    strategic work done to ensure the long term sustainability of the Charity. These achievements have gone a long way towards the future

    stability of COUI UK:

    Children: Our Ultimate Investment (UK) Limited is a company limited by guarantee.

    The principal activity of the Charity is to foster and support the education, health, opportunity and development of children and young

    people.

    3. National Development Manager

    Conclusion

    The charity plans to continue the activities outlined above in the forthcoming years, subject to satisfactory funding arrangements.

    COUI UK is grateful to have received grants from: Esmee Fairbairn Foundation, ARK, City Bridge Trust, DCSF, Freemasons Grand Charity Trust, Dulveration Trust, Jack

    Petchey Foundation, State Street, JP Morgan, Impetus and Pfizer.

    Outcomes include:

    - T&T Magazine: In order to offer a further development opportunity for graduates as well as to be able to send them useful information, COUI UK and 9 graduates worked

    together to create a youth led magazine designed for other graduates. Funding T&T magazine was secured through a grant from CSV Mediabox. T&T magazine combines

    information and advice with features on fashion, music and interviews with messages about safe sexual practice and awareness of emotional well being in a fun and youth

    friendly format.

    COUI UK's vision for TTYL and other youth development programmes is extensive: COUI would like to have the opportunity to offer graduates across the country the chance

    to continue to be involved in local TTYL programmes that are youth led and tai lor made to sui t each local area's needs. COUI UK would l ike to offer a formalised and

    accredited fol low on programme in Peer monitoring or Peer Education at level 2 to act as a follow on from the level 1 Certificate in Interpersonal Skills graduates earn from

    participating in Teens and Toddlers.

    Improved communications

    Funded for three years by the DSCF, our National Development manager has been advised by the DSCF (now Deprtment of Education) on which of the local authorities have

    the worst teenage pregnancy issues and how to target them. The Sainsbury's Family Trusts have approached us with a view to funding programmes in the North West and

    forming a regional hub for Teens & Toddlers.

    4. DCSF Evaluation Intensive Implementation of Teens and Toddlers Pilot

    The DCSF commission Intensive Implementation Evaluation of Teens & Toddlers will be completed in July 2010. NatCen (National Centre for Social Research) and LSHTM

    (London Schools of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine) wil l then take a year to track and further evaluate the impact of Teens & Toddlers and a report will be published in July

    2011. If successful, the DSCF may invest substantially in Teens & Toddlers as one of the fewprogrammes in England that approaches teenage pregnancy prevention from a

    youth development perspective raising aspiration, self esteem and educational attainment. The last Retrospective Tracking study of Teens & Toddlers graduates (2009)

    showed that 91% of Teens & Toddlers graduates were still in education, employment or training and 98% under the age of 20 do not have a conception.

    Education Officer

    COUI UK's Teens and Toddlers Young Leaders (TTYL) programme has been piloting in London since May 2009 and is open to all graduates of Teens and Toddlers living in

    London aged 13-19. TTYL has been developed in response to requests of graduates of Teens and Toddlers projects who have said that they would l ike to further youth

    development opportuni ties that reinforse thei r learning f rom Teens and Toddlers and which would give them chances to be involved in making a dif ference to their

    communities.

    Aims of programme

    With continued funding from Paul Hamlyn Trust, to further work with the Teens & Toddlers Young leaders programme for graduates, our Education Off icer has beensuccessful. I t continues to be our vision to support vulnerable at risk young people along a continuum of their development, start ing with Teens & Toddlers, continuing to

    support their positive steps forward through to young adulthood, culminating in young leaders support and training.

    Future plans

    In order to improve communication and information sharing with graduates, COUI UK created a Facebook group exclusively for the use of graduates. Through the Facebook

    group graduates receive a minimum of two messages a week in the formof a 'quoteof the week'as well as a link to helpful websites and sources. The Facebookgroup is also

    used as a medium for informing graduates of upcomingevents and development opportunities. As of the end of October2009,145 graduates have signed up to the Facebook

    group.

    Additionally we have provided development opportunities to young people: Young Leaders meetings. These meetings were opportunities for graduates to meet one another

    as well as to participate in workshops dedicated to topics of interest to graduates. Other activities include:

    COUI is currentlydelivering programmes to 14 local Authorities. We have worked with almost 3,000 young people in a total of 19 local Authorities, and trained over 215 local

    authority Teens & Toddlers facilitators.

    - Peer Education project : Be in the kNOw is a project that uses drama, dance and improve to teach teens about sexual assertiveness and sexual rights; the int ial two

    workshops to start off the project took place in October and many graduates attended.

    In all of COUI UK's programmes there are still approximately 150 Teens & Toddlers Facilitators, 38 of them being in house staff senior facilitators. The Facilitator Training is

    accreditated by ABC, who is recognised by the National Youth Agency, as a Diploma in Youth Work Level 3 and continues to be successful. With the Teens & Toddlersproject, for the National Award in Interpersonal Skills, we continue to have nearly 100% pass rate.

    Although challenging and a deficit, with robust business planning we believe it has been a good year for COUI UK, supported by the Impetus Trust. The pro bono business

    expertise provided by Impetus has enabled us to create a solid infrastructure to COUI for future growth and expansion. Annual research and evaluat ion continues to

    demonstrate that Teens & Toddlers has a positive impact with the vulnerable and at risk young people served by our programmes.

    THE DIRECTORS' REPORT (CONTINUED)

    YEAR ENDED 28 FEBRUARY 2010

    Our Vision

    Our Aims Are:

    Our Values

    Public Benefit

    The Trustees have given due consideration to the Charity Commission published guidance on the operation of the public

    benefit requirements. All of our charitable activities focus on the empoering of young people and are undertaken to further

    our charitable purposes for the public benefit.

    * Accountability and transparency - to be self aware and self managing

    * Love and service - to contribute to the community and make a difference

    * Non-attachment to outcome - to appreciate the complexity of life

    * Responsibility to embrace What Is - to learn to live in an ever changing world

    "Our vision is that young people in the UK are given the opportunity to participate in a COUI programme so they

    become empowered to make constructive decisions and achieve positive outcomes in their lives and are able to pass

    on the benefit of their experience to others".

    To become the recognised UK expert in teenage pregnancy prevention.

    That the delivery of the Teens and Toddlers programme extends across the UK with the development of regional

    'hubs' in areas of greatest need.

    We work with young people through the following values, which honour the individual whilst recognising their

    fundamental interconnectedness with society and their world. These values are expressed through our methods of

    delivery, our relationships with young people and through our support of their development.

    * Inclusivity and connection - to appreciate difference and our interconnectedness

    * Honouring and empowering potential - to raise self esteem and aspiration

    * Integrity - to act in ways congruent with a sense of self

    That the value and benefits of our potential oriented approach to education and training become widely accepted and

    in demand.

    To involve and support our graduates as they broaden the reach and subsequent benefits of the teens and toddler

    programme to the wider community and so build a sense of community service and purpose.

    We believe in empowering transformational change in young people to enable them to become catalysts for change

    through developing a self awareness that transcends the purely personal and deepens and widens an individual's

    sense of well being and self reliance.

    The Board of Directors has agreed the following reserves policy regarding the level of reserves it should maintain in order to meet the needs of the Charity:

    Enable the Charity to cope financially during times of below average income and cover operational overheads and salaries for at least six months;

    Have additional resources available to cope with revenue and capital requirements arising in the next few years to fulfil its charitable activities.

    When reviewing annual budgets and accounts and periodic management accounts and cash flows, the Board of Directors monitors whether the level of income is appropriate to

    establish and maintain reserves in line with this policy. This policy will be reviewed at least annually.

    The Board of Directors regularly review the major risks to which the Charity is exposed arising from its operations and the environment. Systems are regularly reviewed and

    procedures put in place to minimise these risks.

    This report is made solely to the company's members, as a body, in accordance with Chapter 3 of Part 16 of the Companies Act 2006. Our

    charity.

    The principal accounting policies which are adopted in the preparation of the financial statements are set out below:

    The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention and in accordance with the Financial

    Reporting Standard for Smaller Entities (effective January 2008). The financial statements also comply with the Statement of

    Recommended Practice for Accounting by Charities (SORP 2005), the Charities Act 2006 and the Companies Act 2006.

    The Charity's income is derived from three main sources; grants, programme fees and investment income.

    BASIS OF ACCOUNTING

    CASH FLOW STATEMENT

    Programme fees are recognised according to the period that the course covers and is on an accruals basis.

    Recognition of grant income is on a receivable basis in conjunction with the grant rules and in accordance with the Financial

    Reporting Standard for Smaller Entities (effective January 2008).

    Where grant payment is received in advance of projects being performed, the Charity recognises, as deferred income, a liability

    equal to the amount received, representing its obligations to carry out the project. That liability is reduced and reported as

    income as the project is performed. Where entitlement occurs before the grant is received the income is accrued.

    Donations are included in income when received.

    Unrestricted funds are available for use at the discretion of the Committee of Management in furtherance of the

    Designated funds are unrestricted funds earmarked by the Committee of Management for particular purposes.

    All costs are allocated between the expenditure categories of the SoFA on a basis designed to reflect the use of the resource.

    Costs relating to a particular activity are allocated directly, others are apportioned on an appropriate basis as set out in note 2.

    All fixed assets are initially recorded at cost.

    Expenditure is recognised on an accruals basis as a liability is incurred.

    Rentals on operating leases where substantially all of the risks and rewards of ownership remain with the lessor are charged to

    the SoFA on a straight line basis over the period of the lease.

    Income from investments is recognised on a receivable basis.

    Governance costs include those costs associated with meeting the constitutional and statutory requirements of the charity and

    include the audit fees and any costs linked to the strategic management of the Charity.

    Charitable expenditure comprises those costs incurred by the Charity in the delivery of i ts activities and services for its

    beneficiaries. It includes both costs that can be allocated directly to such activities and those costs of an indirect nature

    necessary to support them.

    The Board of Directors have taken advantage of the exemption in Financial Reporting Standard No. 1 from including a cash flow

    statement in the financial statements on the grounds that the Charity is small.

    Depreciation is calculated so as to write off the cost of an asset, less its estimated residual value, over the useful economic life

    of that asset as follows:
