The 2012-13 year has been one of strong achievement for the Amy Gillett Foundation. Our achievements are due to focused activities, aligned with the strategic plan formulated two years ago. The Foundation has continued to strengthen its role to become Australia’s leading bike rider safety organisation, with the release of its ‘Manifesto for Safer Bike Riding’, outlining critical safety actions needed, written with the help of some of Australia’s best road safety professionals.
In August 2012 the Victorian Government recognised the risk-to-life impact of ‘dooring’ by car occupants in Victoria by significantly increasing the maximum penalty and on-the-spot fine. Earlier in the year the Foundation launched a national campaign for state governments to enact minimum overtaking distance legislation, off the back of our ‘a metre matters’ campaign.
At the time of writing of this report, the campaign is under active consideration with governments in six states and territories, part of two Government Inquiries, and being considered by the National Transport Commission.
After nearly seven years Duncan Murray, the inaugural Chairman of the Foundation, stepped down following a remarkable era development and growth. Through his leadership the Foundation has become a nationally recognised with its programs reaching hundreds of thousands of Australians. I succeeded Duncan as Chairman in January 2013 and I am very grateful to him for remaining on the Board.
During this year the Foundation secured its financial position. This was achieved primarily through public, sponsor and donor support of Amy’s Rides, held in Adelaide, Ballarat, Canberra, the Amy’s Gran Fondo and the Share the Road Tour.
The Board and I are deeply grateful for the effort and support of so many in our community, from participants and fundraisers in our rides, to our partner organisations, ambassadors and patrons and the goodwill of the public who support better bike rider safety.

Stakeholder Engagement
The Amy Gillett Foundation (AGF) continues to influence the policy agenda for bike safety in Australia, an issue of critical importance especially in light of rising bike rider fatalities over the past year. At the time of the submission of this report, a total of 40 people had been killed this year while riding their bike – already four above the 10-year average annual total. The AGF continues to strenuously support the development of safety strategies in many states across Australia and our efforts of engagement are achieving results.
This year the AGF released its ‘Manifesto for Safer Bike Riding’, outlining the critical actions needed to improve the safety of all bicycle riders. In May we also launched a national campaign for the legislation of minimum overtaking distance legislation, off the back of our successful four-year ‘a metre matters’ campaign.
The landmark ‘a metre matters’ campaign has included the development of a comprehensive rationale package, the investigation of national and international precedents, political correspondence, review of published evidence and the drafting of proposed amendments to legislation for the model Australian Road Rules and individual state legislation.
We acknowledge and appreciate the effort of thousands of members of our bike riding community, groups, organisations, peak bodies and other advocacy groups working with us to campaign on this important issue.
The AGF presented at more than 15 conferences, forums and panels relating to road safety and bicycle riding, including:
• Making bike safety research count – Australasian College of Road Safety conference, Sydney, August 2012
• Naturalistic cycling studies: understanding how cyclists and drivers interact on the roads – International Conference on Traffic and Transport Psychology, Groningen, Netherlands, August 2012
• Safe road user behaviour – Cycling Safety Forum, Perth, November 2012
• Beyond helmets and high visibility clothing – Public Health Association of Australia, November 2012
Research
We are pleased to report a significant increase in research outcomes since the engagement of Dr Marilyn Johnson PhD as the Amy Gillett Foundation’s Research Manager. The AGF welcomed Dr Johnson under the AGF Research Scholarship, following her graduation from the Monash University Accident Research Centre (MUARC).
Valuable research work has been undertaken throughout the year as a result of this appointment. Including an investigation of the safety issues related to cycling in regional Victoria, a separate study was done on cyclist safety issues in Baw Baw Shire, Gippsland, and a report in defence of mandatory bicycle helmet legislation.
The Amy Gillett Foundation is a charity with one purpose – reducing the incidence of death and injury to bike riders� The AGF honours the life and legacy of Amy Gillett who was killed by a driver whilst living her dream as an elite-level cyclist�

Additionally the AGF conducted a national survey in which 2,061 bike riders were asked the following question, “When you are riding do you stop at red lights?” The results were published in the highly regarded public health journal Accident Analysis and Prevention and found that the majority of bike riders (63%) answered yes, while over a third (37%) said they had ridden through a red light at some point when they were riding.

Safety Campaigns
Cycle Safe Communities
This year the AGF launched ‘Cycle Safe Communities’, a groundbreaking online platform featuring material developed from the ‘a metre matters’ campaign. The resources enable governments, local councils, businesses, clubs and community groups to deliver impactful cycle safety campaigns directly into communities Australia-wide.
The creation of Cycle Safe Communities was made possible through seed funding provided by VicRoads and the Transport Accident Commission (TAC) and the generosity of thousands of AGF donors and fundraisers Australia-wide.
The first visual activation of the Cycle Safe Communities platform involved a large-scale outdoor campaign supported by JC Decaux, BikeExchange.com.au and Bicycle NSW. In March of this year 480 outdoor billboards throughout the cities of Brisbane, Melbourne and Sydney displayed ‘a metre matters’ and ‘Ride Rules’ messages projected to reach over 3.5 million people.
Ride Rules
The Amy Gillett Foundation believes in a culture of shared respect in road safety. With the support of the Transport Accident Commission, the AGF created ‘Ride Rules’ – a series of tips to help keep bike riders safe, presented in a quirky format.
Launched in September 2012, the ‘Ride Rules’ series of bike rider safety tips feature a primary action associated with a theme. The series uses both satire and facts to help improve bike rider awareness and highlight ways they can improve their own safety and it also informs other road users’ attitudes towards the bike-riding community.
It’s a two-way street
In May 2013, the AGF was awarded a statewide NSW Cycle Safe Communities grant with Transport NSW to create ‘It’s a two-way street’ – a state-wide cycle safety campaign aimed at educating both drivers and bike riders. In June, full-page advertisements appeared in the Sydney Morning Herald and Daily Telegraph reaching over 1.5 million consumers. Phases two and three are currently in development and will include the redevelopment of the 2012 ‘Ride Rules’ campaign and a new ‘Drive Rules’ campaign.
a metre matters
‘a metre matters’ has grown immensely in reach and awareness in every state, leveraged by fundraising and with the support of partners including Europcar, Continental Tyres, Subaru, JC Decaux and oOH Media. To date this campaign has reached over three million Australians, creating awareness and educating all road users about the ways in which motorists and bike riders can be safer together on our roads.
Rides
The annual participation and charity rides conducted by the AGF enable us to promote safety campaigns to the wider bike-riding community and provide a vital opportunity for donors and fundraisers to support to our work financially.
This year over $400,000 was raised from donations and fundraising through the staging of Amy’s Ride and Amy’s Gran Fondo. The AGF was also recognised as the Official Charity in a number of community programs across Australia, raising over $120,000 to support our extensive research, policy and safety campaigns. Of significance is our five-year relationship with Shephard Systems/Big W, where AGF-branded Rosebank helmet sales raised $49,000.

Amy’s Ride
Amy’s rides have become a regular event for many recreational bike riders attracting wide participation from children to older adults. Three events were held during 2012-2013:
• Amy’s Ride South Australia, Adelaide – November 2012
– Delivered by Bicycle SA, it raised over $100,000 to support the work of road safety in South Australia and attracted over 3,000 riders
• Amy’s Ride Victoria, Ballarat – January 2013
– Supported by Transport Accident Commission (TAC), it generated over $20,000 in fundraising and donations and attracted close to 1000 riders
• Amy’s Big Canberra Bike Ride, Canberra, ACT – March 2013
– Delivered in partnership with Pedal Power ACT, it raised over $23,000 in funds for the AGF and attracted more than 1300 riders
Amy’s Share The Road Tour
In December 2012, Amy’s Share the Road Tour featured Simon Clarke, Rochelle Gilmore and 32 amateur cyclists in a seven-day journey from Adelaide to Melbourne covering over 1,100km. The tour departed from Adelaide on Monday 3 December and rode through Meningie, Robe, Mt Gambier, Port Fairy, Port Campbell and Lorne before arriving in Melbourne on Sunday December 9. The Share the Road Tour is the AGF’s largest fundraising activity.
Amy’s Gran Fondo
The second annual Amy’s Gran Fondo was delivered jointly with Cycling Australia in September 2012. The overwhelming success of the event confirmed Amy’s Gran Fondo as the pre-eminent competitive mass-participation event in Australia, with over 4000 bike riding enthusiasts taking part in the ride along the idyllic Great Ocean Road and hinterland. Riders covered the three distance options – 110km, 40km and the 14km community ride.
Held on fully closed roads and holding Union Cycliste Internationale (UCI) World Tour status, Gran Fondo is a unique experience for all those involved. For the second year running, the event enabled the AGF to connect with cyclists of all levels, enhancing the AGF’s reputation for safety and professionalism.
Education
AustCycle
AustCycle is an education initiative jointly owned by Cycling Australia and the Amy Gillett Foundation. It is Australia’s only fully nationally accredited bicycling education and safety training program.
AustCycle has completed the three-year Healthy Communities Initiative (HCI) program funded by the Australian Government Department of Health and Ageing (DoHA). AustCycle has registered providers and teachers in all states and territories of Australia, with state government programs now supporting AustCycle in WA and NSW. Tens of thousands of adults and children have benefitted from AustCycle bike-skills training over the past three years.
Remembering Amy For A Reason
Remembering Amy for a Reason continues to be delivered by Mary Safe, Amy Gillett’s mother. After four years, the life skills and bicycle rider safety program has been delivered to over 16,000 school children across 300 schools nationally.
Additionally, the AGF has supported many community safety campaigns with groups and organisations including Bike Safe, Mornington Peninsula Shire, Sunshine Coast Shire, Cairns local businesses and community groups, RoadSafe North East, Baw Baw Shire and numerous cycling clubs.

Remembering AmyThe AGF continues to draw inspiration and encouragement from the enduring legacy of Amy Gillett, and each year we honour her life and achievements in a number of significant ways.
Amy Gillett Cycling Scholarship
In partnership with Cycling Australia (CA), the Australian Institute of Sport (AIS), Phil Anderson Tours and Hydralyte Sports, the AGF provides the opportunity for a rider to live, train and compete in Europe under the supervision of the Cycling Australia JAYCO-AIS High Performance Program.
This year Jessica Mundy was the recipient of the 2013 Amy Gillett Cycling Scholarship. Jessica is a two-time Junior World Road Cycling Championship team member hailing from South Australia. She is the eighth recipient of the scholarship to experience elite international competition as part of the 2013 JAYCO-AIS Women’s Endurance Squad.
Amy Gillett Bikeway
The Amy Gillett Bikeway provides a safe and picturesque recreational environment in the Adelaide Hills region for bike riders, walkers and horse riders to enjoy. It is a 32 km multi-use sealed path, running along the former rail corridor and will eventually link six Adelaide Hills towns from Oakbank to Mt Pleasant, providing a raft of economic and social benefits to the communities within the broader Adelaide Hills area.
The long-term commitment by the South Australian Government saw Stage Three construction begin this year, bringing the multi-use bikeway closer to completion. Stage Three will involve two phases: the first being Charleston to Hartmann Road and Lenger Road to Oval Road, Mount Torrens; and the second between
Hartmann Road and Lenger Road to be completed in the second half of 2013.
Two stages of the four-stage project have already been already completed: Stage One from Oakbank to Woodside (3.5km) and Stage Two from Woodside to Charleston (4.5km).
Amy Gillett-Safe Memorial Award
The Amy Gillett-Safe Memorial Award is presented annually to an athlete who exemplifies characteristics that Amy possessed and lived by. Amy’s parents – Mary and Dennis Safe, present it. The 2013 award recipient was Annette Edmondson.
Annette completed an impressive 2012 at the elite level of the sport, with a bronze medal in the women’s omnium at the London Olympic Games and silver medals in the teams pursuit and omnium at the UCI Track Cycling World Championships in Melbourne.
Amy Safe (Gillett) Netball Award 2013
The coveted Amy Safe (Gillett) Award is given to a player competing in the School Sport Australia Netball Championships. The voting for this prestigious award is conducted by players from each of the teams, on the basis of stellar on-court behaviour, skills and team contribution – all qualities that Amy was known for, as an amateur netballer herself. In 2013 the AGF was proud to present the Amy Safe (Gillett) Award to Helen Taylor.

Notes to the financial statements for the year ended 30 June 2013
Note 1: Statement of significant accounting policies
(a) Reporting entity
The directors of the trustee have prepared the financial statements of the trust on the basis that the trust is a non-reporting entity because there are no users dependent on general purpose financial statements. These financial statements are therefore special purpose financial statements that have been prepared in order to meet the requirements of the trust deed and the information needs of stakeholders.
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the significant accounting policies disclosed below, which the directors have determined are appropriate to meet the purposes of preparation. Such accounting policies are consistent with the previous period unless stated otherwise.
The financial statements have been prepared on an accruals basis and are based on historical costs unless otherwise stated in the notes.
(b) Statement of compliance
The special purpose financial report has been prepared in accordance with all applicable Accounting Standards, with the exception of:
AASB 124: Related Party Disclosures AASB 7: Financial Instruments: Disclosures
(c) Revenue
Revenue from public donations is recorded when received. Revenue from sale of goods is recognised upon the delivery of goods to customers. Other revenue is recognised when the right to receive the revenue has been established.
Interest revenue is recognised when it becomes receivable on a proportional basis taking in to account the interest rates applicable to the financial assets.
All revenue is stated net of the amount of goods and services tax (GST).
(d) Plant and Equipment
Items of plant and equipment are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses. Cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition of the asset.
Gains and losses on disposal of an item of plant and equipment are determined by comparing the proceeds from disposal with the carrying amount of property, plant and equipment and are recognised net within other income in profit or loss.
Depreciation is calculated over the depreciable amount, which is the cost of an asset, or other amount substituted for cost, less its residual value. Depreciation is recognised in profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of each part of an item of computer software.
(d) Plant and Equipment (continued)
For all other asset classes, the diminishing value method of depreciation is used.
The estimated useful lives for the current and comparative periods are as follows:
2013 2012
Office equipment 2-10 years 2-10 years
Computer software 2.5 years 2.5 years
Depreciation methods, useful lives and residual values are reviewed at each financial year-end and adjusted if appropriate.
The carrying amount of plant and equipment is reviewed annually by directors to ensure it is not in excess of the recoverable amount from those assets. The recoverable amount is assessed on the basis of the expected net cash flows which will be received from the assets employment and subsequent disposal. The expected net cash flows have been discounted to present values in determining recoverable amounts.
![Page 16: Annual Report - Amy Gillett...2 Chairman’s Report 3 3 The 2012-13 year has been one of strong achievement for the Amy Gillett Foundation. Our achievements are due to focused activities,](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042315/5f041fec7e708231d40c6fa1/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
16
(e) Employee Benefits
Liabilities arising in respect of wages and salaries, annual leave and any other employee benefits expected to be settled within twelve months of the reporting date are measured at their nominal amounts based on remuneration rates which are expected to be paid when the liability is settled. All other employee benefit liabilities are measured at the present value of the estimated future cash outflow to be made in respect of services provided by employees up to the reporting date.
Contributions are made by the entity to an employee superannuation fund are recognised in the balance sheet as a liability, after deducting any contributions already paid and in the income statement as an expense as they become payable. Prepaid contributions are recognised as an asset to the extent that a cash refund or a reduction in the future payment is available.
(f) Impairment of assets
Assets with an indefinite useful life are not amortised but are tested annually for impairment in accordance with AASB 136. Assets subject to annual depreciation or amortisation are reviewed for impairment whenever events or circumstances arise that indicates that the carrying amount of the asset may be impaired. An impairment loss is recognised where the carrying amount of the asset exceeds its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount of an asset is defined as the higher of its fair value less costs to sell and value in use.
(g) Comparative Figures
Where required by Accounting Standards comparative figures have been adjusted to conform with changes in presentation for the current financial year.
(h) Income tax

Provisions are recognised when the trust has a legal or constructive obligation, as a result of past events, for which it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will result and that outflow can be reliably measured. Provisions recognised represent the best estimate of the amounts required to settle the obligation at the end of the reporting period.

Trade and other payables, are recognised at the nominal transaction value without taking into account the time value of money.

Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of GST, except where the amount of GST incurred is not recoverable from the Australian Taxation Office (ATO).
Receivables and payables stated are stated inclusive of the amount of GST receivable or payable. The net amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the ATO is included with other receivables or payables in the statement of financial position.
Cash flows are presented in the statement of cash flows on a gross basis, except for the GST component of investing and financing activities, which are disclosed as operating cash flows.
