Report of the Chief Executive Officer
As the founder of Bounce Back in 2009, having recently sold a business, I was in able to
fund the development of what I saw then as a response to a huge need, When I visited
prisons I could see people without hope of getting a job and no aspirations for the future, soI started a painting and decorating social enterprise to employ them, which we successfully
did. As is so often the case when a charity or social enterprise begins, so much was learnt
on the job, We wanted to prove the concept, support the individuals and fund the progress
privately. I believed in doing this because I wanted to ensure that the concept was viable
before we sought funding from any source. We were valuably supported along the way and
in 2011 we started to do training and employability preparation for people to come into our
own social enterprise, and so the training organisation and Charity was formed. Also over
the early years the total that I put in personally was f213,939 which continues to be visible
on the Annual Accounts. This amount enabled us to take a larger number of trainees Into
the social enterprise which was clearly our mission but needed financial support. In addition
it enabled us to overcome non-payment of an invoice by a construction company of 845kand other challenges so often part of business, We have had excellent professional
financial advise over the years as to how to account for this, but the sum continues to raise
questions every year. I therefore felt it might be helpful to confirm that this amount is
backed by a letter from me saying that I am not going to pull it out of the organisation at any
point unless and until the Charity can afford to pay it back, and it was the development
capital needed to get the organisation, which has since grown and proved its ability to do
what I had hoped it would do when it began in 2011 to where it is now. The mission
remains to employ and support individuals ourselves in our social enterprise, partner
employers to take people on when they leave prison and ultimately give people hope that ajob and support will enable them to start to turn their lives around and find a new future.

Report of the Trustees 31 March 2018
The trustees present their statutory report together with the financial statements for the yearended 31 March 2018.
The report has been prepared in accordance with Part Vill of the Charities Act 2011 and
constitutes a directors' report for the purpose of company legislation.
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies setout on pages 22 to 26 of the attached financial statements and comply with the charitable
company's memorandum and articles of association, applicable laws, 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 United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102).
Objectives and Activities
Purpose and main activitiesThe primary purpose of the Foundation is to reduce re-offending by ensuring as many ex-offenders as possible are able to access the Bounce Back training and work experience
programme, prior to joining the painting and decorating company, Bounce Back ProjectLimited or being supported to work within construction companies. Bounce Back Foundation
owns 100'/0 of the Ordinary Share Capital of the limited company.
The Objects of the Foundation are the rehabilitation of ex-offenders, the relief ofunemployment and the advancement of education and training; principally for ex-offenders
but also other socially excluded or marginalised people by providing them with:
+ Tools and mechanisms to assist in finding employment
+ Identifiable routes into employment
+ Work experience, training, mentoring and advice 8 guidance on victim empathy and
workplace and citizenship responsibilities
Public BenefitThe Trustees confirm that they have complied with the duty in Section 4 of the Charities Act
2011 to have due regard to the Charity Commission's general guidance on public benefit,
'Charities and Public Benefit'. The board of trustees have referred to the guidance contained
in the Charity Commission's general guidance on public benefit when reviewing the aims
and objectives and in planning the Charity's future activities.
Bounce Back has been consistent in its mission since it began six years ago. With a focuson painting and decorating, over the years additional skills training such as dry lining and
scaffolding have been added in response to labour market demand, It starts early
intervention in custody, then provides people in and out of custody with education and
qualifications leading them into employment in Bounce Back's own social enterprise, as well
as with their partners who include the construction industry, housing associations and Local
Authorities.

Report of the Trustees 31 March 2018
ActivitiesTo achieve its objectives, the Bounce Back programme is outlined below:
In 2017/18 Bounce Back expanded its training provision, in addition to KMP Brixton
and Wandsworth, we now train candidates at HMP Pentonville, ISIS, and Feltham. Wenow have seven state-of-the-art training centres in Painting & Decorating, Dry Lining,
Scaffolding, Aerial Window Cleaning and Employability Skills. This has resulted in anincrease in the number or training spaces, and we now have capacity to train up to 130people a day across all the centres. Further, in addition to the range of vocational
training, our offer has been supplemented by personal development programmes
designed to ensure our participants have both technical and soft skills required to
develop a career in construction and associated industries. Alongside this in 2017/18we planned the expansion of the range of training and skills development on offer
through our partnerships with Blue Sky, Landsec, and NJC, This will result in additional
intensive personal development and Aerial Window cleaning courses planned to comeonline in 2018/19,
We have also increased our community provision with a pop-up community workshop
in Brixton. The scope of our community programmes was again augmented by a rangeof commissioned or funded programmes; Mind the Gap which is a consortium of sixorganisations designed to support different aspects of the rehabilitation journey; Out for
Good programme, a partnership funded by Sheriffs and Recorders which offers
dedicated six month pre and post release intensive support, mentoring and
employment advocacy, Our community-based programmes support training for
participants with additional barriers into the workplace. While our partnership with Crisis
provides training and skills development for homeless participants, the HMPSS CFOcontract allows us to target participants with multiple barriers into work and is delivered
throughout London including at probation offices, while our membership of the Mind the
Gap programme has allowed us to fund additional training. This will supplement thetraining we offer to the hardest to reach participants in a number of other prisons, and
probation offices throughout London, through the HMPPS CFO contract. Bounce Backnow offers a substantial range of training and skills programmes developed in
conjunction with employers that focus on getting participants straight into employment
post release, and thus reduce the risk of re-offending.
Employment: Our model provides participants with training and skills as well as abespoke support working with participants and employers to support sustainable joboutcomes and careers, In addition to the work we undertake with employers. BounceBack social enterprise provides opportunities for some participants who are not yet
ready for the workplace to undertake further training and development. Subject to thelevel the participants have reached, they join the social enterprise as a 'trainee' or as ahigher level painter decorator. This is the beginning of their paid self-employment and
their continued training on-site with Bounce Back. Their journey is the same when they
join partner organisations, including Land Securities amongst others, when our
caseworkers support them into jobs in this sector.

Report of the Trustees 31 March 2018
Achievements and Performance
AchievementsSince the Foundation was established it has:
Taken over eight hundred ex-offenders and put them into training and subsequent
employment,
+ Maintained contact with over 70% of its trainees- the rest have either obtained
employment elsewhere or set up their own businesses.
+ Acknowledged a duty of care to the public by providing a structured environment toteach life skills to get people to re-engage back in to society and challenge their
approach to crime in the interest of protecting the public.
Been described as a "social innovator" by HMPPS. The Bounce Back approach is to
equip every participant with the mindset, qualifications and skills to work on any site,
+ Created a core team of up to twenty professional decorators working for the social
enterprise on a variety of projects, including residential and large construction industry
projects, as well as Local Authority and Housing Association commissions. A number of
our participants have stayed with Bounce Back for 18 months or more, within the social
enterprise.
Measurement
Recognising the importance of measurement, in 2014 a Social return on investment report
was completed at the end of 2014. Since then we have published a review annually that
includes evaluation of costs and value we achieve through our work, along with key
outcomes and impact of the services we deliver, Our 2017/18 report shows that we
successfully supported one hundred and nineteen people into work across a range ofdisciplines in the construction industry from labourers, trainee site managers, scaffolders,
dry liners, painters and decorators, and trainee construction managers. The measured
reoffending rate from participants we support into work is 12%, this compares favourably
with the national average of 29.5% occurring within the first year of release. In addition we
also undertake impact measurement for our funders, on special projects and the
construction companies we work with.
Difference made to beneficiaries and wider societyThere are currently over 80,000 people in prison and a government reported re-offending
rate of over 50%. It costs over 840k p.a. to keep someone in prison for a year and the costof reoffending is E13bn. A job cuts the likelihood of re-offending by 50% and this is what
Bounce Back seeks to address.
When reoffending occurs, judges and courts are giving people back to Bounce Back in
preference to putting them back in prison. This helps to ensure re-offending is minimised
and centres on an indirect saving to the public purse, especially given the average costs of
Bounce Back Foundation 8
Report of the Trustees 31 March 2018
Achievements and Performance (continued)
Difference made to beneficiaries and wider society (continued)
prison is estimated at 637,240 per offender per year.
In addition, continued growth in the construction industry has meant that trained Bounce
Back painters and decorators, dry liners and scaffolders are increasingly in demand. The
prison population provides a pool of potential trainee workers that the construction industry
is keen to tap into, which has the potential to change the employment landscape
dramatically, as well as reducing re-offending rates,
Bounce Back, through its unique relationships across the prison and the community, as well
as its longstanding commitment to employing ex-offenders, provides a valued link between
the prison population and the construction industry. In recognition of this, the Bounce Back
kitemark is being used by its construction industry partners.

Report of the Trustees 31 March 2018
Financial Review
Financial statementsThe group achieved an overall operating surplus of F43,745 during the year (2017-F48,649), with a surplus on unrestricted funds of F28,745 (2017 - F48,649) and a surplus on
restricted funds of F15,000 (2017 -Fnil).
Income of F1,567,030 for the current year was predominantly from three sources: delivery of
prison training contracts and case management (F1,039,484); charitable activities including
painting and decorating (F180,629); and direct funding from a number of sources, including
Trusts and Foundations, private funders and company donations (F346,913). Overall
income increased by 6294,330, this was primarily as a result of increased income from
training to prisoners and ex-offenders and increased demand and delivery of our casemanagement support and employability programmes.
The Foundation does not fundraise directly with individuals and therefore is not registered
with the Fundraising Regulator. If donations from individuals are received the Foundation
aims to protect personal data and never sells data or swaps data with other organisations.
The Foundation manages its own fundraising activities, The Foundation undertakes to react
to and investigate any complaints regarding its fundraising activities and to learn from them
and improve its service. During 2017/18, the Foundation received no complaints about its
fundraising activities.
We take this opportunity to thank just some of our supporters: Walgreens Boots Alliance,

Total expenditure for the year was F1,523,285 (2017 - F1,224, 057).
Bounce Back Project, which is operated through the trading subsidiary and included within
the group figures, reported a deficit of F7,761 during the year (2017 —deficit of f50,912).Bounce Back Project is integral to our ability to provide an effective pathway to sustainable
employment and as such our primary focus remains on providing as many employment
opportunities as efficiently as possible.
Financial positionThe group's total funds are made up of a restricted funds of F51,237 (2017 - f26,237) and
an unrestricted fund deficit of 6168,978 (2017 - F197,723). The unrestricted funds are made
up of a surplus of 269,283 within the charity (2017 - F38,477) and cumulative deficits within
Bounce Back Project of F238,261 (2017 - f236,200).
Bounce Back Project is supported through redeemable preference shares issued to the
founder of F213,939, which will not be repaid until the company has sufficient funds to do
so. These preference shares were provided to Bounce Back Project in order to finance the

establishment of the business prior to it achieving surpluses. Excluding the founder
preference shares, Bounce Back Project Ltd has net liabilities of F350,215 (2017-2342,454).
Going concernThe trustees have assessed whether the use of the going concern assumption is
appropriate in preparing these accounts. The trustees have made this assessment in
respect to a period of one year from the date of approval of these accounts.
The total deficit in funds on the group balance sheet of 6117,741 (2017 - f161,486) includes
the redeemable preferences shares issued by the founder, which are included as a liability
on the group balance sheet. The founder has committed not to redeem these shares until
sufficient funds are available to do so, Excluding these shares, the group had total funds atthe balance sheet date of 896,198 (2017 - 652,453). Taking into the account the group
financial position, the surplus reported for the year and future financial projections, the
trustees of the charity have concluded that there are no material uncertainties related to
events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the ability of the charity to continue
as a going concern.
Reserves policyIt is the policy of the trustees to continue to build the general reserve to ensure sufficient
operating costs are freely available. The trustees also intend to achieve future surpluses in
Bounce Back Project in order to build its reserves.
Plans for the Future
Bounce Back continues to focus on its core mission to reduce reoffending by the provision
of pathways into training and sustainable employment for ex-offenders and people with
additional barriers into sustainable employment. Building on our results to date, in addition
on to its seven prison training centres, Bounce Back is responding to demand from
hundreds of people who have left other prisons, via probation services, partner
organisations and its own website. In 2017/18 we opened a community facility that allowed
us to train over 100 participants as part of the Mind the Gap project.
In 2018/19 we are working with a key number of other providers in the sector in bidding for
the new prison education framework contracts set to replace the current framework for the
start of the 2019/20 financial year. Additionally we will be bidding in partnership with anumber of other organisations to work on the Mayor's construction academy in London. This
will allow us to expand and strengthen our current case management offer and achieve our
aims of increasing the employment outcomes we are able to achieve by over 50/0 in
2018/19 when compared with this financial year.
Above all Bounce Back's mission is to meet its objectives by training and employing more
people year on year and helping them to bounce back - not just for now, but for ever.

Notes to the financial statements 31 March 2018
The principal accounting policies adopted, judgements and key sources of estimation
uncertainty in the preparation of the financial statements are laid out below.
Basis of preparation
These financial statements have been prepared for the year to 31 March 2018.
The financial statements have been prepared in accordanc'e with 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 United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (Charities SORP FRS 102) and the
Charities Act 2011.
The charity or "Foundation" constitutes a public benefit entity as defined by FRS 102.
The financial statements are presented in UK sterling and are rounded to the nearest
pound.
Basis of consolidation
The consolidated financial statements consolidate the financial statements of Bounce
Back Foundation and its trading subsidiary made up to the balance sheet date.
The Foundation has taken advantage of Section 408 of the Companies Act 2006 and not
included its own statement of financial activities in these financial statements. The
Foundation's net income for the year was F50,306 (2017 —net income 251,189) before
recognising an impairment provision against intra-group debt of 2324,793, which resulted
in net expenditure for the year of 6274,487.
Critical accounting estimates and areas of Judgement
Preparation of the financial statements requires the Trustees and senior management to
make significant judgements and estimates. The items in the financial statements where
these judgements and estimates have been made include:
+ Estimating the useful economic life of tangible fixed assets for the purposes of
calculating depreciation;
+ Estimating the likelihood of receipt of accrued income balances; and
+ Estimating any necessary impairment provision against amounts receivable, including
the assessment of Intra-group debt.
Bounce Back Foundation 22
Notes to the financial statements 31 March 2018
Assessment of going concernThe Trustees' have assessed whether the use of the going concern assumption is
appropriate in preparing these accounts. The Trustees have made this assessment in
respect to a period of one year from the date of approval of these accounts,
The Trustees' consider the going concern basis to be appropriate. The Trustees'
assessment is based on:
an extension of a key training contract from August 2018 through to March 2019. The
extension gives the Foundation reasonable certainty over a significant
income/expenditure stream in the short term. The Trustees are optimistic that the
Foundation's re-tendering for future training contract work in 2019 will be successful,
In event of the contract not being renewed the Trustees have identified options to
reduce the scale of the Foundation's activities;
receiving confirmation from the holder of the redeemable preference shares that
repayment will not be demanded until the subsidiary company is in a position to make
payment; and
by reference to the improved operational performance in the year under review and
projected future profit forecasts that indicate the Foundation and its social enterprise
subsidiary company will be able to operate profitability in future years.
The Trustees therefore assesses that the group will have sufficient resources to meet its
liabilities as they fall due for a period of twelve months from the date of the approval of the
financial statements.
Income
Income is recognised in the period in which the group or charity is entitled to receipt and
the amount can be measured reliably and it is probable that the income will be received.
Income is deferred only when the group or charity has to fulfil conditions before becoming
entitled to it or where the donor or funder has specified that the income is to be expended
in a future accounting period.
Income comprises donations, legacies and income from charitable and trading activities.
Donations are recognised when the charity has confirmation of both the amount and
settlement date. In the event of donations pledged but not received, the amount is accrued
for where the receipt is considered probable. In the event that a donation is subject to
conditions that require a level of performance before the charity is entitled to the funds, the
income is deferred and not recognised until either those conditions are fully met, or the
fulfilment of those conditions is wholly within the control of the charity and it is probable
that those conditions will be fulfilled in the reporting period.
Bounce Back Foundation 23
Notes to the financial statements 31 March 2018
Income (continued)
Income from charitable and trading activities is recognised to the extent that it is probable
that the economic benefits will flow to the group or charity and the income can be reliably
measured. They are measured as the fair value of the consideration received or
receivable, excluding discounts, rebates, value added tax and other sales taxes,
Interest on funds held on deposit and interest on loans and investments are included when
receivable and the amount can be measured reliably by the charity.
Expenditure recognition
Expenditure is recognised as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation committing
the group or charity to make a payment 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 bemeasured reliably.
All expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and is classified as follows:
+ Expenditure on generating funds include the salaries, direct costs and allocated
support costs associated with generating fundraising income.
+ Expenditure on charitable activities comprises expenditure on the charity's primary
charitable purposes as described in the Trustees' report. The costs for each activity
include the direct costs of casework, training and special project and include allocated
support costs, which are apportioned on the level of activity in each area. In addition,
the group's trading costs are classified as "social enterprise" and include all
expenditure applicable to the trading activities,
Allocation of support and governance costsSupport costs represent indirect charitable expenditure. In order to carry out the primary
purposes of the charity it is necessary to provide support in the form of personnel
development, financial procedures, provision of office services and equipment and asuitable working environment.
Governance costs comprise the costs involving the public accountability of the charity
(including audit costs) and coqts in respect to its compliance with regulation and good
practice,
Support costs and governance costs are apportioned using percentages based on the
time spent on the activities by the employees of the charity.
Gifts in kind
Gifts for onward distribution to beneficiaries of the charity are included at their fair value asat the time of distribution.
Assets donated to the charity for its own use are included in income and expenditure at
their fair value as at the time of the gift,
Items donated to the charity for resale are included within income when sold and no value
is placed on stock of such items at the year-end.
Bounce Back Foundation 24
Notes to the financial statements 31 March 2018
Tangible fixed assetsAll assets with an expected useful life exceeding one year are capitalised.
Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off each asset over
its estimated useful life:
Motor vehicles
Computer and office equipment
25% p.a. on reducing balance33% p.a. on cost
Investments'The charity's investment in its subsidiary company is valued at cost.
DebtorsDebtors are recognised at their settlement amount, less any provision for non-
recoverability. Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid.
Cash at bank and ln hand
Cash at bank and in hand represents such accounts and instruments that are available on
demand or have an original maturity of less than three months,
Creditors and provisionsCreditors and provisions are recognised when there is an obligation at the balance sheet
date as a result of a past event, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefit will be
required in settlement, and the amount of the settlement can be estimated reliably.
Creditors and provisions are recognised at the amount the charity anticipates it will pay to
settle the debt.
Financial instruments
The Foundation and group only holds basic financial instruments as defined in FRS102.The financial assets and financial labilities of the group and their measurement basis is asfollows;
Financial assets —trade and other debtors are basic financial instruments and are debt
instruments measured at amortised cost as detailed in note 10. Prepayments are not
financial instruments. Amounts due to the parent company are held at face value less any
impairment.
Cash at bank- is classified as a basic financial instrument and is measured at face value,
Financial liabilities —trade creditors, accruals and other creditors are financial instruments
and are measured at amortised cost as detailed in notes 11 and 12. Taxation and social
security are not included in the financial instrument disclosure definition. Deferred income
is not deemed to be a financial liability, as cash settlement has already taken place and
there is an obligation to deliver services rather than cash or another financial instrument.
Bounce Back Foundation 25
Notes to the financial statements 31 March 2018
Classification of shares as debt or equityNon-equity financial instruments issued by the subsidiary company are presented as a
financial liability in the balance sheet, as detailed in note 12, and are measured initially at
fair value net of transactions costs and thereafter at amortised cost until extinguished on
conversion or redemption.
Fund accountingUnrestricted funds comprise the general fund and the Bounce Back Project Limited fund.
The general unrestricted fund comprises those monies which may be used towards
meeting the charitable objectives of the Foundation at the discretion of the Trustees, The
Bounce. Back Project Limited fund represents the cumulative funds position within the
social enterprise operating though the trading subsidiary.
The restricted funds are monies raised for, and their use restricted to, a specific purpose,
or donations subject to donor imposed conditions.
Operating leasesRentals applicable to operating leases where substantially all of the benefits and risks of
ownership remain with the lessor are charged on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
PensionsContributions in respect to defined contribution schemes are recognised in the statement
of financial activities in the year in which they are payable to the relevant scheme.
Bounce Back Foundation 26
Notes to the financial statements 31 March 2018
1. Correction of prior period errors.The redeemable preference shares issued by the subsidiary company were previously
classified as equity and included as part of the charity's funds on consolidation. In the
charity's balance sheet, a notional reclassification was made to remove the reference to aminority shareholding within the analysis of the charity's unrestricted funds.
In accordance with FRS102, the preference shares have been reclassified as a financial
liability in the consolidated balance sheet.
The correction has had the impact of increasing group non-current liabilities by 6213,939for the year ended 31 March 2017 and eliminating the group's net asset position of
252,453 as previously stated to a net liability position of F161,486. The correction has no
impact on the charity net asset position as previously reported.

As described in note 1, redeemable preference shares previously classified as equity
have been reclassified as a liability in accordance with FRS102. Cornparatives have
been restated.
The preference shares were issued on 31 January 2014 by the subsidiary company to
the Founder of the Charity, F Findlater, in settlement of loans made by her to fund start-
up costs incurred by the subsidiary company and its predecessor prior to 2014.
The preference shares were issued at par and are non-voting but rank pari passu with
the ordinary shares on a return of capital or winding up. They are not entitled to receive
distributions.
The preference shares entitled the subsidiary company to redeem the shares at any
time after two year from the date of issue by the company giving three months notice
and the holder of the redeemable shares the right to request redemption after the expiry
of five years from the date of issue on giving six months notice. The holder has given an
undertaking not to exercise her rights of redemption until the subsidiary company is financially
secure and able to make repayment,
