## Statement by the treasurer 

Covid  19  continued  to  result  in  some  planned  events  having  to  be cancelled. However, we were able to hold our Flower Festival in June and the  Cider  and  Cheese  Fair  in  November  both  of  which  were  a  great success. 

£24,778 was raised from events, donations, interest and gift aid and we thank  all  those  who  have  supported  the  events  and  those  who  made donations.

## **Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements as at 31 December 2021** 

## **1.  Accounting Policies:** 

- _(i) Basis of accounting_ 

   - The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with applicable  Accounting  Standards  in  the  United  Kingdom  and under  the  historical  cost  convention.  The  financial  statements have also been prepared in compliance with the Statements of Recommended Practice for Charities. 

- _(ii) Turnover_ Turnover,  which excludes  value  added  taxation,  represents  the value  of  merchandise  sold  and  proceeds  from  fund  raising activities. Less than 1% of the merchandise sold is overseas sales. 

- _(iii) Advertising revenues_ Advertising revenues are booked at date of billing as they are nonrefundable if adverts are subsequently cancelled. 

- _(iv) Taxation_ The  charge  for  taxation  is  based  on  the  profit  for  the  period. Provision is  made  for deferred  taxation, caused by  taking  into account timing differences between the treatment of certain items for taxation and accounting purposes, only to the extent that it is probable that the actual liability or asset will crystallise.

   - The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with applicable  Accounting  Standards  in  the  United  Kingdom  and under  the  historical  cost  convention.  The  financial  statements have also been prepared in compliance with the Statements of Recommended Practice for Charities. 

- _(ii) Turnover_ Turnover,  which excludes  value  added  taxation,  represents  the value  of  merchandise  sold  and  proceeds  from  fund  raising activities. Less than 1% of the merchandise sold is overseas sales. 

- _(iii) Advertising revenues_ Advertising revenues are booked at date of billing as they are nonrefundable if adverts are subsequently cancelled. 

- _(iv) Taxation_ The  charge  for  taxation  is  based  on  the  profit  for  the  period.
