OB3ECTIVES AND ACTIVITIESObjectives and aimsThe aim ofthe Students Exploring Marriage Trust is to enable young people to explore the realities of lasting relationshipsand marriage in our society today by the advancement ofeducation of the general public, in particular, young people of allraces and creeds, on all aspects of lasting relationships, family life and marriage. The Students Exploring MarriageTrust, known operationally as Explore, applies the principles of learning by experience, where young people lead theirown dialogue to investigate the relationships of ordinary couples who, in response, oifer the experience of their ownmarriage. Marriage is used as a case study for a long tenn committed relationship since it is capable ofdefinition and isconsidered a key building block of society.
Significant activitiesThe Students Exploring Marriage Trust is a provider ofeducational services to schools, colleges and prisons. Its missionis to help young people receive an education in the emotional literacy and life skills that produce lasting relationships,
strong family life and successful marriages. It is committed to both maintaining the highest standards in service deliveryand to being responsive to safeguarding those who receive the service.The Students Exploring Marriage Trust, known as Explore, is committed to deliver its services through trained and
prepared leaders and volunteer couples with cultural sensitivity and without discrimination or prejudice. It operates acomprehensive Child Protection Health and Safety Policy, and is a member of the Churches Safeguarding Agency.Explore seeks to:
- Connect young people with married couples who can share their experiences- Enable young people to think positively about long term relationships- Tackle the worrying statistics about family breakdown in the UK
During the 2016/ 2017 financial year, the charity organised half day conferences and class sessions in schools, collegesand prisons during which nearly 8,000 young people participated in Explore events, bringing the total ofparticipants since2000 to almost 100,000 fiom over 250 schools and 122 prisons. The vast proportion ofout participants are aged 15 to 18.
The work ofExplore has been recognised as being consistent with thepolicies and philosophies of UK educational bodies and HM Prison Service. There has been a considerable and
favourable shift in opinion, reflected politically, in society, and in the media, towards the importance of educating youngpeople in the necessary life skills that support relationships and strong family life. This has given Explore increasedopportunity to grow within existing areas and into new geographical regions.
Public benefitThe Trustees review on a regular basis the aims, objectives and achievements to ensure the charity remains focused on itsstated purposes.

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEESFOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 AUGUST 2017
STRATEGIC REPORTAchievement and performanceCharitable activities
During 2016/ 2017 Explore maintained its volume of existing operations, providing 72 sessions in schools across 12counties. This figure was slightly down on the previous year, but continues to represent a broader scale of activity thanexisted five years ago. This expansion was achieved despite the challenges arising fi'om uncertainties over economicdifficulties and educational reform.
In 2016/2017, Explore has expanded its activities in some of its traditional areas ofoperation, with growth in the number
ofnew schools working with us in Romford and Hampshire.
Explore has developed a partnership approach with other charities, so as to combine our expertise with their establishedpresence in any given area. In 3 locations we have signed co-operation agreements for the joint employment of a LocalDevelopment Office for Explore. We expect these will pmvide further pockets ofgrowth.These operational steps have been supported by:
CommunicationExplore has a website, which is currently being upgraded for launch by December 2017. It is active on social media,with a regular blog post aimed at our youth audience. Our Twitter account enables us to have a wider voice and influencein the youth charity space. Our Facebook page is aimed more specifically at our existing and prospective volunteerforce. We have initiated a digital dimension to our operations with the team communications tool which facilitates groupdiscussions among our home-working based staff Our Impact Reporting is in the process of migrating online too, with
young people giving feedback through a survey app via a tablet or phone. Further evolution in this area is anticipated.
~Marketin
Explore has continued to develop its existing links with other charitable organisations which are complementary,including The Marriage Foundation, and the Dioceses of Westminster and of Brentwood.
l~dOExplore has created a lean and flexible management structure, with minimal central assets or costs. Increasingly,emphasis is placed on the development of self-sufficiency in the local areas where Explore's regular operations areconducted.
H~ii l 8Explore has implemented steps to plan and monitor its own finances, and put on a professional basis the bulk of itsfund-raising. This is intended to provide a stable basis of funding for the future and, of course, maintaining prudent
levels of liquidity.
Financial reviewFinancial positionAgainst an economic backdrop of limited resources and insecurities over fimding, it has continued to be difficult to launchour long-tenn plan to grow and develop Explore's services. Nevertheless the charity has succeeded in raising funds, andobtaining strong support fiom its base of volunteers, to maintain a steady level of operations. Total net funds stood atg61,579 at the end of the year, an increase of 14e/w which Places ExPlore within the reserve level recommended by theCharity Commission and in accordance with the Trustees Reserve Policy.
Principal funding sourcesThe charity's three main sources of income are grants from trust funds and charitable foundations, fees from client schoolsand prisons, and donations from individuals. Grants and donations are listed in note 2 to the accounts.
The Trustees would like to thank all donors for their substantial contribution they have made to the charity's work duringthe year.
Reserves policyTrustees have established a policy whereby the unrestricted funds not committed or invested in tangible fixed assets held
by the charity should represent a minimum of 3 months of the organisation's operational expendinue.

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OFTHE STUDENTS EXPLORING MARRIAGE TRUST
I report on the accounts for the year ended 31 August 2017 set out on pages seven to thirteen.
Respective respoasibilities of trmtees and examinerThe charity's trustees (who are also the directors for the purposes of company law) are responsible for the preparation ofthe accounts. The charity's trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year (under Section 144(2) of theCharities Act 2011 (the 2011 Act)) and that an independent examination is required.
Having satisfied myself that the charity is not subject to audit under company law and is eligible for independentexamination, it is my responsibility to:
examine the accounts under Section 145 of the 2011 Actto follow the procedures laid down in the General Directions given by the Charity Commission (under Section145(5') of the 2011 Act); andto state whether particular matters have come to my attention.
Basis of the independent examiner's reportMy examination was carried out in accordance with the General Directions given by the Charity Commission. Anexamination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presentedwith those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seekingexplanations fiom you as trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all theevidence that would be required in an audit, and consequently no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a'true and fair view ' and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statements below.
Independent examiner's statementIn connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention:
(I) which gives me reasonable cause to believe that, in any material respect, the requimments
to keep accounting records in accordance with Section 386 and 387 of the Companies Act 2006; andto prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records, comply with the accounting requirementsof Sections 394 and 395 of the Companies Act 2006 and with the methods snd principles of theAccounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charitiespreparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and
Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2015)

(2) to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts tobe reached.
