CHILDREN’S SCRAPSTORE

TRUSTEES’ ANNUAL REPORT

YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2023

The Trustees are pleased to present their annual Trustees’ report, together with the consolidated financial statements of the charity and subsidiary for the year ended 31 March 2023, which are also prepared to meet the requirements for a Trustees’ report and accounts for Companies Act purposes.

The financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011, the Companies Act 2006, the Memorandum and Articles of Association, and Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standards 102.

Objectives and activities

Our main activities and who we aim to help are described below. All of our charitable activities focus on the encouragement of Reuse, Art and Play and are undertaken to further our charitable objects for the public benefit.

Objects, as set out in the governing document

The objects of the Scrapstore shall be: to provide, or assist in the provision of, facilities for recreation, education, and other leisure time activities for children, being facilities of which such children have need by reason of their age, or social or economic circumstances; and which will improve conditions of life for such children by promoting their educational, physical or mental well-being; to promote the use of waste materials as playthings.

How our activities deliver public benefit

Children’s Scrapstore’s overarching aim is to promote the wellbeing of children, young people and adults through the provision of materials and facilities for creative and imaginative play. We do this through:

Waste collection and re-use
Provision of materials and facilities for play and creativity
Promotion of play and creativity for all

In shaping our objectives for the year and planning our activities, the Trustees have considered the Charity Commission’s guidance on public benefit.

Children’s Scrapstore’s objective, therefore, is to allow children, young people and adults to play, experiment, and stimulate their imaginations with a variety of familiar and unusual, inexpensive materials through the re-use of safe and appropriate scrap that you can’t obtain elsewhere. Children’s Scrapstore collects waste and surplus materials from industry and commerce and makes them available at very little cost to our member groups. The focus of Children’s Scrapstore’s work is to provide art and craft resources for creative play and education, provide other resources to complement this work, and to raise awareness of play, creativity and re-use.

Membership

Membership is open to any groups or individuals working or volunteering with a group of children, young people or adults in a creative, play, care, educational, therapeutic or community setting.

Our membership includes playgroups, nurseries, crèches, parent and toddler groups, resources and activities centres, cubs, scouts, guides, brownies, beavers, woodcraft folk, city farms, adventure playgrounds, hospitals, arts, environmental, care homes, theatre groups, schools, universities, and colleges. Many of our members have limited budgets and rely heavily on the value for money resources that Children’s Scrapstore provide. The resources range from offcuts of paper, card, wood, fabrics and hot air balloon material to plastic trays, boxes and empty tins.

CHILDREN’S SCRAPSTORE

TRUSTEES’ ANNUAL REPORT

YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2023

With changes in the economic landscape, we recognised that access to cheap plentiful resources was important to families and individuals. Our offer has recently extended the public as ‘Supporters Plus’ who have limited access to the warehouse. Limited access means that there are still plentiful amounts of scrap for our members.

Fundraising

Children’s Scrapstore’s approach to fundraising is carried out with the objective of raising funds to support core work. All fundraising is carried out through recognised funds or trusts and the charity does not approach the public for any fundraising purposes, nor does it work with any commercial participators or professional fundraisers. As a result, no complaints from the public have been documented.

Future developments and sustainability

Primarily our charitable activities focus on the encouragement of play and creative activities and are undertaken to further our charitable objects for the public benefit. We play a strategic role in Reuse, Art and Play both locally and nationally. We have spent time this year continuing to build infrastructure support in these three sectors. We continue to build and develop partnerships and act as a focus for local and regional organisations and leaders in these sectors.

Our sustainability in terms of skills, resources and financial stability continues to be at the forefront of our developments. Services developed as our emergency pandemic response have given the charity new connections, and the viable elements of this will continue to be developed.

Achievements and performance of the charity

Ensure that all of our pre-Covid services are back up and running and embedded sustainably with the existing staff team

Reintroduce services at pre-pandemic levels

All services are back running at a slightly reduced level compared to pre-pandemic. We will continue to increase capacity as we are able to and there is sufficient demand and need.

We are aiming to build a solid foundation through gradual growth of our tried and tested services before we develop anything new. Services have grown to a point that more staff were needed and we increased our staff team by 33%.

Improve our ability to demonstrate impact though collecting/collating and using data

We have plans in place for 2023/2024, and in 2022/2023 have invented the systems to capture data in ways that suit our operations and capacity.

Improve our presence with clear consistent joined up messaging with our three areas: ReUSE, ART and PLAY

Family Arts Network

We will support the Family Arts Campaign to adapt to the emerging landscape following the pandemic. We will support the submission of a continuation funding bid to the Arts Council for the Ambassador program, using what we have learnt from rebuilding the Family Arts Network.

YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2023

To continuously improve our internal systems and process, making them clear and practical

Improve organisational systems and processes

We are continuing to improve our systems and processes for all building maintenance and operational requirements throughout the organisation. We have continued to find specialists where we felt their knowledge would enhance our skills and understanding. One of our biggest areas for improvements this year is strategic planning and how that filters up and down through the organisation. Strategic plans have been put in place for the two years 2022/2023 and 2023/2024, and these are monitored by the senior leadership team on a monthly and quarterly basis.

Partnership and collaborations including supporting sector infrastructure

Sustaining Play

As a major delivery partner on the Lottery funded sustainable play project, we have and will continue to develop play provision in Lawrence Weston and Frome Vale. We lead the training consultancy element of this project in partnership with Bristol Association for Neighbourhood Daycare, and we play a strategic lead role in the project alongside Learning Partnership West.

Local Partnerships

We recognise the power of working in partnership in terms of delivering effective local services in cost effective ways and have and will continue to develop new partnerships by attending new network meetings.

Where we find synergy, we will take time to explore ways of working together, including offering generous leadership to cross-sector panels and steering groups.

Holiday Activity and Food Programme

We have been an integral part of the planning project team for this fund, and we are going to continue to support this strategic role, as well as deliver play sessions including food and the production of activity packs for children who cannot attend play sessions.

To build a financially stable base from which we can grow in the following 5 years

Building maintenance and development

We will continue to maintain the building and begin plans for major improvements, which will involve building contractors and the possibility of additional funding needs.

Ensure that all of our pre-Covid services are back up and running and embedded sustainably with the existing staff team

Reintroduce services at pre-pandemic levels

All services are back up and running, although take-up for these is still slightly reduced versus pre-pandemic level. On average numbers of our services has increased from 2021/2022 by:

Membership: 5.4% Play sessions: 600% Birthday parties: 200% Scrap donations: 25% Art Shop sales: 28%

Whilst these percentages look positive, we are envisaging a drop in take-up of services in 2023/2024 as economic conditions remain difficult for all our customers and members.

Improve our ability to demonstrate impact though collecting/collating and using data

We now have monthly departmental reports which contain data reporting, and we continue to extend and develop systems to record data.

TRUSTEES’ ANNUAL REPORT

YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2023

Improve our presence with clear consistent joined up messaging with our three areas, ReUSE, ART and PLAY

Family Arts Network

We have re-invigorated the Family Arts Network in Bristol and now have 3 years continuation funding from the Family Arts Campaign for our role as Ambassador for Bristol. This role has re-engaged partners, and we have planned family arts consultations to inform activities for the next two years.

We held a Family Arts day in Scrapstore House with over 500 attendees.

Super Saturday

We have reintroduced a regular monthly free arts session called Super Saturday in partnership with St Werburgh’s City Farm and St Werburgh’s Community Centre. Numbers have grown each month and up to 70 family participants have enjoyed the free activities. The activities in the session show that free and low cost materials provide inspiration for children’s creativity and absorb children in a mindful activity for significant periods of time.

Reuse Fair

We held a one day reuse fair in September 2022 which was attended by 530 people. We engaged with many re-use organisations in Bristol who have links with domestic reuse objectives including Bristol Waste, Digilocal, The Children’s Bike Exchange and The Fishponds Repair Café. The fair provided a foundation for the provision of reuse ideas and signposting on our website for the general public and other like-minded organisations. The partnerships have allowed us to discover common challenges and barriers and work towards overcoming these. For example, the general public can donate inappropriate materials to organisations who have no method to reuse or repair these and endure the cost of disposal. The public want to do the right thing but need help to access the most appropriate avenue for disposal of their items in a sustainable way.

Play

We have extended our direct delivery offer with more Play Ranging sessions. One session a week increased to two in term time and increased to four in holidays. In these sessions we model loose parts play using resources for our warehouse.

We have delivered 5 training courses. These include: How to run messy play Intergenerational play Play on a shoestring Enhancing play spaces

These courses enable 60 people from 17 different organisations to improve their play practice with reused materials as the cornerstone of the resourcing.

We continued to support Playful Bristol and The Youth Work Alliance with sector leadership. This has led to a high level of coordination in the sector, which enables the efficient use of resources available to us and has increased funding into the sector. This has enabled the sector to thrive and increase the quality and quantity of opportunities for children and young people in Bristol.

TRUSTEES’ ANNUAL REPORT

YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2023

To continuously improve our internal systems and process, making them clear and practical

Improve organisational systems and processes

We are halfway through the implementation of two year strategic departmental plans, and these are being used in many and varied ways by teams in the charity. They have formed the basis of departmental work plans, and data is being produced to support both the plans and inform the trustees via the monthly reports.

Managers discuss items from the plans in their monthly meetings and talk to staff about individual actions in 1 to 1 meetings throughout the year. This is part of a larger plan to connect the departments and staff with overall organisational development and CEO and Deputy CEO to review their impact.

Health and Safety

We have reviewed all aspects of H & S and bought into Work Nest, an H & S portal which includes online training which is being accessed by all members of staff so that training and approach is consistent throughout the charity. Consultants from Work Nest have visited and reviewed our policies. They left an action plan which we have been working through and should complete in the 2023/2024 year.

Volunteers

Over the last year we have supported 24 volunteers including regular and corporate days who have donated 1,216 hours. They have prepared and packed winter activity boxes, processed scrap for use at events and play sessions, and produced and sold items at the reuse fair such as bin numbers cut from donated sticky back plastic. This is now an established group whose commitment and energy have made a significant impact on the charity.

Partnership and collaborations including supporting sector infrastructure

Sustaining Play

As a major delivery partner on the Lottery funded sustainable play project, we have and will continue to develop play provision in Lawrence Weston and Frome Vale which has attracted 1,057 participants. We have led the training consultancy element of this project in partnership with Bristol Association for Neighbourhood Daycare and supported 31 organisations. We have received continuation funding from the Lottery starting in June 2023 for three years.

Local Partnerships

We developed a number of important relationships with relevant partners in reuse and play and shared ideas, concerns and developments, including:

Bristol University - Intergenerational and Playful Ageing Network University of the West of England - preparation for internship Summer 2023 Sparks - sharing ideas, joint projects reinvigorating reuse network Better Food Company - joint marketing for events. Playful Bristol & The Youth Work Alliance - supporting the coordination Children and Young People’s Network - supporting the coordination

Holiday Activity and Food Programme

We have been an integral part of the planning project team for this fund and we are going to continue to support this strategic role, as well as deliver play sessions including food and the production of winter activity packs for children who cannot attend play sessions. We worked with 651 children and produced 700 winter packs.

TRUSTEES’ ANNUAL REPORT

YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2023

To build a financial stable base from which we can grow in the following 5 years

Surplus

Our surplus funds generated this year have decreased from £101,321(2021/2022) to £12,729. This was an expected reduction and due mainly to staffing levels being increased to deliver a welcome increase in our various charitable activities.

Building maintenance and development

We will continue to maintain the building and have begun plans for major refurbishment and improvements involving multiple building contractors and the raising of additional funds to complete the work.

Main objectives for the next year and strategies for achieving those objectives

Partnerships

Community play delivery

We want to increase our play ranger presence into having a regular session in Oldbury Court following pilot sessions in November 2022. We want to increase our work in Lawrence Weston by holding a second session all year round rather than just in school holidays.

We want to support other community based organisations to be able to deliver regular play sessions.

Supporting routes into employment for playwork

We want to deliver short course and entry level qualifications in playwork to students and adults, and link up with level 2 & 3 qualifications so there is a direct pathway into playwork as a career.

Family Arts Ambassador work

Reinitiate the local network, including a family consultation about the barriers to attendance at family art events. Look for funding for the network to run family arts provision outside the centre of the city.

Financial base

Providing affordable spaces for activities and meetings

Improve and develop meeting and training spaces in the building, and promote the spaces on social media.

Raising money for building refurbishment and development

Investigate ways to raise money using the assets of our building and land and contacting our current mortgage provider. Engage the services of architects and contractors to look at improvements and upgrades to the building, including sustainable concepts.

Improve our presence locally

Increasing our social media presence

Rework the job description for marketing assistant to focus on social media content and messaging. Increase the number and variety of social media platforms we use and work on increasing our engagement with Reuse Art and Play, for example holding a naming competition for the Robot in the car park.

Exhibition in SPARKS

Work with the reuse coordinator for Sparks to engage a new audience who already have an interest in reduce, repair reuse and recycling. Put up an exhibition in the old Marks & Spencer’s store which Sparks are currently occupying, showcasing Scrapstore’s work.

YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2023

Holding a successful Reuse Fair

Improve processes

Intern and work experience

Continuing to embed systems and processes in the charity

We are going to instigate weekly Health and Safety walk-rounds to ensure that standards are maintained and improved for the whole organisation. We will implement a consistent methodology for managers to conduct 1 to 1 meetings with their staff to ensure that everyone has the same experience. We are going to employ an office administrator to ensure that all day to day organisational tasks are consistently applied.

Investment performance

Surplus short-term funds are held in an interest-bearing deposit account on which small levels of income were received.

Transactions and financial position

The Trustees consider the financial performance during the year.

The accounts are set out on pages 13 to 31. The accounts have been prepared implementing the Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standards 102 issued by the Charity Commission for England and Wales.

The Statement of Financial Activities (SOFA) shows net (expenditure)/income for the year of a revenue nature.

The total at the foot of the Balance Sheet shows the total reserves at the year end.

Policies on reserves

The policy is to maintain reserves at the level necessary to sustain the planned activities of the charity.

The accounting policies (Note 1) sets out the funds being operated and their respective applications.

The Designated fund is maintained at a level equivalent to the investment in the freehold property less the mortgage. This is held within the building and forms the basis of Scrapstore’s stability and flexibility.

The General fund accumulated surplus is intended to be raised to a level equal to between 3 and 6 months of the resources expended on unrestricted work, this equates to approx. £218k- £436k based on current year unrestricted expenditure. At this level the Trustees feel that they would be able to continue the current activities of the charity in the event of a significant drop in funding.

The General fund stood at £352,839 at 31 March 2023, of which £170,015 is represent by free reserves. The current level of general fund is in line with the desired level by the Trustees.

Restricted funds , if any, are spent in line with the donor’s wishes or funder’s agreements as soon as possible.

Principal funding sources

Funding is via membership fees, trading arm surplus, events, donations for scrap, sales of PlayPods, Play Services and grants. During this year there was a greater reliance on grant funding due to some of our funding sources being paused.

Investment policy and objectives

The Trustees have wide powers of investment. Surplus short- term funds are held in an interest-bearing deposit account.

Availability and adequacy of assets of each of the funds

The board of Trustees is satisfied that the charity’s assets in each fund are available and adequate to fulfil its obligations in respect of each fund.

Changes in fixed assets

Changes in fixed assets are shown in detail in note 12 to the accounts. There has been capital expenditure of £30,670 this year, and the assets continue to be repaired and maintained as and when necessary.

Governance:

The board of Trustees provide strategic governance of the charity and adhere to all legal and statutory obligations as well as Charity Commission guidance.

STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT

Governing document and constitution

The charity is a company limited by guarantee and therefore has no share capital. It is governed by a Memorandum and Articles of Association, dated 26 June 1991

(revised 28 September 2011). It is registered as a charity with the Charity Commission.

The Trustees are responsible for strategy, policy and financial oversight of the company. Implementation of this is delegated to the Chief Executive Officer and Deputy Chief Executive Officer.

Pay policy for senior staff

Currently the Chief Executive Officer is a freelance consultant and the Deputy Chief Executive Officer is a salaried member of staff. The remuneration for both is governed by the remuneration policy.

The charity’s Trustees perform the strategic lead for the charity, together with being responsible for the overview of all operational items which would potentially impact on the charity’s ability to meet its objects, maintain financial stability and affect the ethos of the charity. All Trustees give their time freely and no Trustee received remuneration for their duties as a Trustee in the year. Some Trustees did receive reimbursment for selected services during the year and these are detailed in the accounts. Trustees claimed reasonable travel expenses during this year.

The policies and procedures adopted for the induction and training of Trustees

When selecting new Trustees the charity seeks people who can bring relevant expertise.

Children’s Scrapstore continues to update the Trustees' handbook, ensuring that it adheres to the Charity Commission guidelines. The handbook and induction process are used to familiarise new Trustees with all aspects of the work done by the charity, and briefs them on their legal obligations under charity and company law, the committee and decision-making process, and key staffs.

Trustees are made aware of the literature and websites of independent governance advisory agencies and can access these at any time.

TRUSTEES’ ANNUAL REPORT

YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2023

Organisational structure and management of the charity by the board of Trustees

The board of Trustees administers the charity. The board meets bi-monthly, where financial reports are presented and discussed as well as operational and safeguarding reports. Other sub-groups are formed for specific activities as and when they occur. The Trustees delegate their responsibilities for the day-to-day administration of the charity to the senior management team.

The Trustees who served during the year are listed on page 1.

Major risk management

The Trustees have a major risk management strategy which comprises:

a regular review of the major risks and uncertainties that the charity and its subsidiary may face;
the establishment of policies, systems and procedures to mitigate those risks identified in the plan;
the implementation of procedures designed to minimise or manage any potential impact on the charity should those risks materialise.

A key element in the management of financial risk is the setting of a reserves policy and its regular review by Trustees.

During 2021-2022 all services of the charity resumed after the Covid-19 pandemic and additional staff were recruited to ensure these services could be delivered effectively. The full board of trustees met bi-monthly to review operations and finances.

The charity no longer considers the aftermath of the pandemic to be a risk and continues to review the risks of the charity at trustee meetings.

Statement of Trustees’ responsibilities

The Trustees (who are also directors of Children's Scrapstore for the purposes of company law) are responsible for preparing the Trustees’ Report (incorporating the strategic report and directors’ report) and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards, including Financial Reporting Standard 102: The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (United Kingdom Accepted Accounting Practice).

Company law requires the Trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charitable company and of the income and expenditure, of the charitable company for that period. In preparing these financial statements, the Trustees are required to:

select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
observe the methods and principles in the Charities SORP;
make judgments and accounting estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
state whether applicable UK Accounting Standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements; and
prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charitable company will continue in business.

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER’S REPORT

YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2023

I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the consolidated accounts of the Group comprising the Children’s Scrapstore and its subsidiary undertakings for the year ended 31 March 2023.

Responsibilities and basis of report

As the charity’s trustees of the Group (and also its directors for the purposes of company law) you are responsible for the preparation of the consolidated accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 (‘the 2006 Act’).

Having satisfied myself that the accounts of both Children’s Scrapstore and the Group are not required to be audited under Part 16 of the 2006 Act and are eligible for independent examination, I report in respect of my examination of your consolidated accounts as carried out under section 145 of the Charities Act 2011 (‘the 2011 Act’). In carrying out my examination I have followed the Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5) (b) of the 2011 Act.

Independent examiner’s statement

Since the Group’s gross income exceeded £250,000 your examiner must be a member of a body listed in section 145 of the 2011 Act. I confirm that I am qualified to undertake the examination because I am a member of the Institute of Chartered Accountants in England and Wales, which is one of the listed bodies.

I have completed my examination. I confirm that no matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe:

accounting records were not kept in respect of Children’s Scrapstore as required by section 386 of the 2006 Act; or
the accounts do not accord with those records; or
the accounts do not comply with the accounting requirements of section 396 of the 2006 Act other than any requirement that the accounts give a ‘true and fair view which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination; or
the accounts have not been prepared in accordance with the methods and principles of the Statement of Recommended Practice for accounting and reporting by charities applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102).

I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.

1 Accounting policies

Accounting convention

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the historical cost convention (except where otherwise stated in the accounting policy note) and in accordance with the Statement of Recommended Practice: Accounting and Reporting by Charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) issued in October 2019, and the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102), and the Companies Act 2006.

The charity is a public benefit entity as defined under FRS102. The Trustees consider that there are no material uncertainties affecting the ability of the charity to continue as a going concern.

Basis of consolidation

The Consolidated Statement of Financial Activities (SOFA), Consolidated Balance Sheet and Consolidated Cash Flow Statement consolidate the financial statements of the Charity and its subsidiary, Artrageous Creative Limited. The results of the subsidiary are consolidated on a line by line basis.

Income

Income from donations is included in income when these are receivable, except as follows:

I. When donors specify that donations given to the charity must be used in future accounting periods, the income is deferred until those periods; II. When donors impose conditions which have to be fulfilled before the charity becomes entitled to use such income, the income is deferred until the pre-conditions have been met.

Legacies are included on a receivable basis where charity is entitled to the income, it can be measured reliably and receipt is probable. Where legacies have been notified to the charity, or the charity is aware of the granting of probate, and the criteria for income recognition have not been met, then the legacy is not included in income but is treated as a contingent asset and disclosed if material.

Investment income is included on a receivable basis.

Donations in kind comprise donated services where the costs are measurable and the services would otherwise have to be paid for to maintain operational effectiveness.

Income from donations for scrap is recognised when receivable, either when donations are received from visitors to the warehouse for scrap materials taken, or materials are delivered to schools to refill their supplies.

Expenditure

Expenditure is recognised in the period in which it is incurred. Expenditure includes attributable VAT which cannot be recovered.

Raising funds

Raising funds expenditure include those costs incurred in seeking voluntary contributions, costs of goods sold and other costs which include the costs of running and participating in fundraising events and collections and cost of goods purchased for resale.

Charitable Activities

Expenditure on charitable activities comprises those costs incurred by the Charity in the delivery of its activities and services. It includes both costs that can be allocated directly to this activity and those costs of an indirect nature necessary to support them.

Support costs and other costs that cannot be directly attributed to activities are allocated on a basis consistent with the use of the resource.

Governance costs

Governance costs include those costs associated with meeting the constitutional and statutory requirements of the charity and include the audit fees and costs linked to the strategic management of the charity. Governance costs are included within support costs.

CHILDREN'S SCRAPSTORE NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2023

1 Accounting policies (continued)

Allocation and apportionment costs

Certain expenditure is directly attributable to specific activities and this has been included in those cost categories. Other costs, which are attributable to more than one category, are apportioned across cost categories on the basis of an assessment of workload carried out from time to time.

Overhead support costs have been allocated between fundraising and publicity costs, fundraising trading and charitable activities. The apportionment has been allocated on the basis of income received for the activity and is analysed in note 7.

Pension costs and other post-retirement benefits

The charity contributes to defined contribution pension schemes. Contributions payable to the charity's pension schemes are charged to the Statement of Financial Activities in the period to which they relate.

Tangible fixed assets

Fixed assets are held at cost less accumulated depreciation. Assets costing less than £250 are not capitalised. Depreciation is calculated so as to write off the cost of an asset, less its estimated ultimate residual value, over the useful life of that asset as follows:

Land and Buildings - over 50 years; straight line on buildings, no depreciation charged on land. Improvements to Property - over 50 years; straight line

Furniture and Equipment - over 4 years; straight line Motor vehicles - over 4 years; straight line

Fixed asset investments

Investments in subsidiaries and associates are included at cost less impairment at 31 March. The SOFA includes the net gains and losses arising on revaluations and disposals during the year.

Stock

Stocks are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value, after making due allowance for obsolete and slow moving items. Cost is determined using the Average cost method (AVCO). Net realisable value is based on selling price less anticipated costs to completion and selling costs.

Donated items are not valued in stock and recognised in income only when sold.

Trade debtors

Trade and other debtors are recognised at the settlement amount due after any trade discount offered. Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid after taking account of any discounts due.

Cash and cash equivalents

Cash at bank and cash in hand includes cash and short term highly liquid investments with a short maturity of three months or less from the date of acquisition or opening of the deposit or similar account.

Creditors

Creditors and provisions are recognised where the charity has a present obligation resulting from a past event that will probably result in the transfer of funds to a third party and the amount due to settle the obligation can be measured or estimated reliably. Creditors and provisions are normally recognised at their settlement amount after allowing for any discounts due.

Fund accounting

Free funds are unrestricted funds which are available for use at the discretion of the Trustees in furtherance of the general objectives of the Charity and which have not been designated for other purposes.

Designated funds comprise unrestricted funds that have been set aside by the Trustees for particular purposes. The aim and use of each designated fund is set out in the notes to the financial statements.

Restricted funds can only be used for particular restricted purposes within the objects of the charity. Restrictions arise when specified by the donor or when funds are raised for particular restricted purposes.

Further explanation of the nature and purpose of each fund is included in notes to the financial statements.
