“At the time of approving the financial statements, the trustees have a reasonable expectation that the Charity has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Thus, the Trustees continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements.”
Significant events
- “2025 was another successful year for Tusk, as the charity continued its mission to accelerate African-driven conservation by providing critical funding, recognising leadership, and fostering collaboration across the continent. Tusk's income for the year was £15.6m, enabling the charity to support 78 partner led projects across 27 countries.”
- “An early highlight for the year was the historic return of critically endangered mountain bongo to the slopes of Mount Kenya. In February, after more than two years of planning, 17 of these rare antelopes were flown from the Rare Species Conservatory Foundation (RSCF) in Florida to Nairobi, then transported by road to their new sanctuary on Mt Kenya.”
- “In the UK, the Tusk Turtle Trail brought a splash of colour to central London from July to September... The artworks were auctioned in October at an event held at The View from the Shard, raising a net profit of over £160,000.”
- “The year also ushered in a new era for Tusk as it moved its headquarters from Gillingham, Dorset, where it had been for more than 20 years, to new, larger offices in nearby Tisbury, Wiltshire. These new premises can better accommodate the team's recent growth.”
