## **Report of the Trustees for the year ended 31 August 2020 (continued)**
_The Trustees, who are also the directors of Child Bereavement UK, (the charitable company/the Charity) for the purposes of company law, have pleasure in presenting their report, which incorporates the report of the directors for the purposes of company law, and the accounts for the year ended 31 August 2020._
## **Structure, governance and management**
The Charity is governed by its Memorandum and Articles of Association as a Company, limited by guarantee and registered in England and Wales, and is registered as a charity both in England & Wales and Scotland.
New Trustees are recruited on the basis of their skills, experience and potential contribution to the governance of the Charity, and are appointed for an agreed length of time, subject to any applicable constitutional or statutory provisions relating to election and re-election. New Trustees are properly inducted; those attending training disseminate their learning to others; and roles, responsibilities and subcommittee membership are formally reviewed at the annual Board strategy and planning day. Board effectiveness and composition, as well as the reappointment of any Trustee after the expiry of their term of office, is subject to rigorous review in line with the principles of the Code of Governance for larger charities. The Trustees recognise the benefits of diverse leadership and are committed to advancing equality of opportunity across the organisation.
Strategic direction and policy is approved by the Board of Trustees in consultation with the Chief Executive; the execution of the strategic plan is delegated to the Chief Executive and Senior Management Team, with progress monitored at quarterly Board meetings and against an annual budget. All policies are regularly reviewed and updated as required. The Charity is proud to have maintained its ISO 9001 Quality Management System accreditation for the quality improvement of businesses, evidencing its commitment to continual improvement to achieve a high standard of service.
Retaining the expertise of key staff is vital to the success of the Charity’s operations. The Charity is committed to paying the living wage and to equal pay and aims to ensure that salaries reflect the knowledge, skills, responsibilities and personal competencies required for the satisfactory performance of each role and remain competitive with reference to sector pay surveys. Pay is reviewed annually, and any increases approved by the Remuneration Committee. The Chief Executive and Senior Management Team are subject to the same remuneration policies as all other employee ~~s.~~
The Charity is a member of the Fundraising Regulator and ensures that all fundraising activity is compliant with the _Code_ of _Fundraising Practice_ **.** During the year under review the Charity received no complaints in relation to its fundraising practices (2019: no complaints).
## **Risk policy**
The Trustees have identified and assessed the major risks that might face the Charity and impact on its ability to function in pursuit of its charitable objectives, including operational and financial risks related to the pandemic. Whilst the Trustees are confident that the Charity has adequate control procedures in place to mitigate and manage the major risks to which it is exposed, its Risk & Governance sub-committee regularly reviews the Charity’s Risk Register and reports half yearly to the Board.
## **Public benefit**
The Trustees have referred to the guidance contained in the Charity Commission’s general guidance on public benefit when reviewing the objectives of the Charity and in planning future activities.

## **Report of the Trustees for the year ended 31 August 2020 (continued)**
## **Vision and Mission**
The Charity’s vision is for all families to have the support they need to rebuild their lives, when a child grieves or when a child dies. Its mission is to tackle the inequalities that exist in the availability, accessibility and quality of bereavement support and training across the UK and to build capacity within communities to manage the impact of child bereavement.
## **Strategic objectives**
The Charity’s strategy aims to ensure that adults and children across the UK experiencing the devastation of child bereavement are supported to rebuild their lives. Integral to this for the next 2/3 years is to ensure its organisational resilience and sustainability in the wake of the pandemic and ensuing economic downturn, so that the Charity can continue to provide high quality support to both grieving families and the professionals who care for them, and establish the climate within which it can continue to further develop its services in response to emerging needs.
The Charity’s strategic plan focuses on two key areas:
1. Access to support for grieving children, young people and families and the professionals who care for them.
2. Access to high-calibre bereavement training.
## **Achievement and performance**
Child Bereavement UK’s staff and volunteers have worked tirelessly to continue to provide high-quality services in what has been a particularly challenging year:
## **1. Supporting Families**
Face-to-face support was the primary intervention method prior to Covid 19, with the Charity delivering individual, couple, family and group support sessions to those who could access any of its regional bases, and the Charity was pleased to be able to offer family support for the first time in Greater Manchester, Wirral, Bradford and Teesside through its North Development Team. However, with the advent of the pandemic and government restrictions, the Charity mobilised its staff to home-working from March and transferred its face-to-face services to support via telephone or digital means. During lockdown, the Charity experienced a drop in demand as lack of privacy and competing priorities made it harder for families to access support. There was also a decrease in the number of children engaging directly in virtual support, with increased parenting support being offered during this time, and fewer group support sessions delivered.
Nevertheless, during the year under review the Charity responded to 1,496 families who were referred to the Charity for support. The Charity has directly supported 2,682 individuals (1,641 adults and 1,041 children) through its regional services, providing 13,262 hours of support. In addition, the Charity responded to 7,743 enquiries to its Helpline during the year and has seen an increase in the use of its online ‘Livechat’ facility with 1,169 contacts to this service.
Despite the challenges of the pandemic, the Charity maintained its development work to ensure pathways into bereavement support, establishing new networks whilst maintaining links with existing sector partners and undertaking a considerable amount of multidisciplinary training to upskill professionals in the regions.

**Child Bereavement UK (A company limited by guarantee)**
## **Report of the Trustees for the year ended 31 August 2020 (continued)**
The Charity continues to be represented on the Advisory Panel of the Childhood Bereavement Network; and is a member of the National Bereavement Alliance, Pregnancy & Baby Charities Network, Support after Suicide Partnership and a number of bereavement-related All Party Parliamentary Groups.
## **2.**
## **Educating Professionals**
The Charity continues to be recognised as the UK leader in educating professionals in child bereavement, both when a child dies and when a child is bereaved, delivering a broad programme of multidisciplinary training to support professionals across health and social care, education, the emergency services and the voluntary and corporate sectors through both its core programme and development projects. Highlights during the year involved delivering a successful Neonatal Conference in Leeds and being commissioned to deliver training for Primary Care Staff in NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde. In addition, the Charity rolled out its training _Responding to bereavement in pre-hospital situations_ for the Air Ambulance Helicopter Emergency Medical Service, with HRH The Duke of Cambridge outlining his support for the training in a video message.
The Charity’s face-to-face training offer was suspended with the advent of the pandemic, and it quickly adapted to an online delivery model to meet emerging need, delivering free bereavement awareness webinars to the education sector; training in providing virtual support to other charities; and supporting corporates to manage bereavement in the workplace. In the wake of Covid-19, a number of local authorities sought training to support their staff to manage interactions with the public, and the Charity secured funding to devise and deliver webinars to help frontline doctors develop their resilience and wellbeing. The Charity continued its commitment to helping other organisations develop sustainable, quality services for bereaved families through its consultancy and support service and provided clinical supervision and reflective practice sessions for staff and volunteers from a number of other organisations in their work with bereaved families.
The Charity is proud to have almost doubled the number of professionals trained directly by its staff this year, with 19,983 accessing CBUK’s programme. Support for the education sector remained a key area of focus, with the Charity’s programme providing support for all stages from pre-school to further education, and for those with additional learning needs. In addition, the Charity’s free online schools training programmes on _Managing a Sudden Death_ and _Supporting a Bereaved Pupil,_ developed in partnership with the London Grid for Learning, have been accessed by 275,383 users during the year, with over 180,000 from May-July.
## 3. **Communication**
The Charity continued to champion the voice of bereaved families in all aspects of its work and in the wider media, contributing to national media debate on bereavement-related issues. The Charity’s profile was raised significantly via the featuring of its practitioners and service-users on prime-time TV in BBC’s _A Berry Royal Christmas_ ; _Strictly Come Dancing Christmas Day Special_ ; and _Rio & Kate: Becoming a stepfamily;_ the latter programmes involving filmed visits to three of the Charity’s bereavement services.
Page 4
**Child Bereavement UK (A company limited by guarantee)**
## **Report of the Trustees for the year ended 31 August 2020 (continued)**
The Charity was called on to advise on the sensitive portrayal of storylines concerning the death of a child for a mainstream TV drama; and its service-users and practitioners featured in a film for BBC Ideas. The Charity included the voices of bereaved young people and parents in a number of awareness campaigns, notably: Dying Matters Week; World Suicide Prevention Day; Children’s Mental Health Awareness Week; Baby Loss Awareness Week; and Children’s Grief Awareness Week.
The main focus of the latter six months was a dedicated response to the Covid-19 pandemic, creating a suite of resources for families and professionals, including supportive information and short guidance films, alongside communicating the continued availability of the Charity’s bereavement support through digital means. In addition, the Charity was approached by the BBC to create films and guidance in response to Covid-19 for children, young people, parents and teachers for BBC Newsround and BBC Bitesize.
The Charity continued to optimise its ability to reach families, professionals, supporters and the wider public through digital activities; unique visitors to the Charity’s website increased by 70% with nearly 1 million page views, and the Charity’s social media followers grew by 23% reaching nearly 48,000 in total. Total film views on YouTube increased by 82% compared to the previous year; two-thirds of these views were of short guidance films evidencing the popularity of accessing support via this format. The Charity was granted a Creative Vision Award as part of Bournemouth University’s 2019 BFX competition. The resulting two animated short films, made by students for students, were launched during the year to help direct young adults to online support.
## **4. Sustainability and our response to the Covid-19 pandemic**
Child Bereavement UK is committed to developing sustainable annual income growth to ensure that existing services can be maintained and grown in future years as required. The second half of this year presented some significant challenges to both the provision of services and income generation as all face to face support and training was curtailed and all summer fundraising activities cancelled or postponed. The Charity has therefore paused all growth and development activities for the next year save those committed to under the terms of restricted funding.
Since April the Charity made use of the Government’s Furlough scheme and furloughed on average 40 people in the five months to August and received £266,483 furlough grant funding. With the help of our kind supporters The Lets Rock concert programme was replaced with an online virtual event and this raised £174,975 in donations. Despite this general income still fell £462,050 in the year with all of the contraction being in the period since the lockdown was imposed.
Given the ongoing difficulties and the prospect of uncertainty continuing well into next year the Charity has started a restructuring programme to realign the cost base to an expected income level of £3m next year, 39% lower than this current year.
Volunteers remain integral to the Charity’s work and in the year under review 182 volunteers donated 3,410 hours of their time to the Charity, assisting with bereavement support groups, raising awareness, administrative tasks, and fundraising and training events ~~.~~

## **Report of the Trustees for the year ended 31 August 2020 (continued)**
## **Financial review**
## **Results**
During the year under review, the Charity generated total funds of £4,922,949 (2019: £4,415,770). Within this, income from Restricted Grants and Donations amounted to £2,092,594 (2019: £1,080,753). Expenditure from the Restricted Reserves, expended in accordance with the respective grantors’ terms and conditions, amounted to £1,115,602 (2019: £1,383,325). There was a decrease in the income on the General Fund compared to the previous year of £504,662 to £2,830,355 due in large part to the lockdown in the latter part of the year. Looking ahead this trend will continue through most of the next period and therefore the Charity has reduced its fundraising and development investment and curtailed its face to face training programmes to focus instead on the provision of its services to those in need via digital media and booked telephone support.
Unencumbered free reserves at the balance sheet date amounted to £1,633,986 (2019: £1,664,104).
## **Reserves Policy**
The Trustees continue to place great importance on the long-term sustainability of the Charity. Costs continue to be well controlled, primarily through the establishment of clear gateways through which the Charity will not pass unless the short-term funding needs can be met from within existing reserves and there is reasonable security of new funding to follow. The Trustees continue to have regard to the importance of being able to retain the core of the Charity’s highly skilled and experienced workforce that has been built up over a number of years. To this end, they will continue to hold £1,000,000 in a designated fund to protect the Charity against any major short -term financial threat or shortfall in income stream, which is still subject to some unpredictability. The Designated Fund represents less than 4 months’ projected annual costs.
The Scottish Government (CYPEIF and ALEC fund) is paid quarterly in arrears and this gives rise to a deficit in the fund at year end, which was settled post year end.
## **Investment Policy**
The Charity’s investment policy follows the Charity Commission guidance and has specific regard to the level of acceptable risk, the preservation of capital and long-term capital growth to support sustainability of service delivery. While the investment policy has been set by the Board of Trustees, responsibility for ongoing investment issues has been delegated to the Investment sub- committee.
To protect and grow capital ahead of inflation, a medium-term target of 3% compound annual growth has been set. The long-term fund is managed by Ruffer and since inception it has achieved a compound annual growth rate of 4.4%. The short-term fund is managed by Rothschild Wealth Management and since inception it has achieved a compound annual growth rate of 4.7%.
## **Plans for the future**
The Charity expects to see a sustained increase in demand for its support as the complexities of bereavement during the pandemic impact, and is committed to building on the learning from the past extraordinary year to ensure its services for both families and professionals are accessible nationally and continue to operate to the highest quality standards for both virtual and face-to-face delivery. Success is predicated upon organisational agility and responsiveness to emerging challenges including income generation; optimising the Charity’s infrastructure to ensure efficiency and effectiveness across its operations; embedding digital across the organisation; and delivering on a robust communications strategy to increase awareness.

**Child Bereavement UK (A company limited by guarantee)**
## **Report of the Trustees for the year ended 31 August 2020 (continued)**
To that end the Charity will:
- increase accessibility to its family support services by embedding a comprehensive digital support offering alongside its traditional service delivery model, and continue to evolve innovative and impactful ways of providing support to children, young people, parents and families
- further develop its support for bereaved children across the education sector and for bereaved adults in the workplace
- extend the reach, influence and accessibility of its training through a blended programme of digital and face-to-face training, and through strategic partnerships
- optimise the potential of digital media to ensure that users can find and engage with the Charity, and families and professionals can more readily access the support, information and guidance they need
- streamline its operations to maximise their efficiency, impact and sustainability
- develop/implement a new volunteer strategy and single volunteering network to grow its volunteer base and firmly embed volunteering in its culture at all levels
## **Statement of the Trustees’ responsibilities**
The Trustees (who are also directors of Child Bereavement UK for the purposes of company law) are responsible for preparing the Report of the Trustees and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally 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 incoming resources and application of resources, including its income and expenditure, 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 (FRS 102);
- make judgements and 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.
The Trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records that disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charitable company and to enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006, the Charities and Trustees (Investment (Scotland) Act 2005, the Charities Accounts (Scotland) Regulations 2006 and the Charity’s constitution. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charitable company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.
In so far as the Trustees are aware:
- there is no relevant audit information of which the charitable company’s auditor is unaware; and
- the Trustees have taken all steps that they ought to have taken to make themselves aware of any relevant audit information and to establish that the auditor is aware of that information.

## **Independent auditor’s report to the members of Child Bereavement UK For the year ended 31 August 2020**
## **Opinion**
We have audited the financial statements of Child Bereavement UK for the year ended 31 August 2020 which comprise Statement of Financial Activities, Balance Sheet, Statement of Cash Flows and notes to the financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is 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 Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).
In our opinion the financial statements:
- give a true and fair view of the charitable company’s state of affairs as at 31 August 2020 and of its incoming resources and application of resources, including its income and expenditure, for the year then ended;
- have been properly prepared in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice; and
- have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006, the Charities and Trustee Investment (Scotland) Act 2005 and regulation 8 of the Charities Accounts (Scotland) Regulations 2006 (as amended).
## **Basis for opinion**
We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) (ISAs (UK)) and applicable law. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the charitable company in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the UK, including the FRC’s Ethical Standard, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
## **Conclusions relating to going concern**
We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the ISAs (UK) require us to report to you where:
- the trustees’ use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is not appropriate; or
- the trustees have not disclosed in the financial statements any identified material uncertainties that may cast significant doubt about the charitable company’s ability to continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting for a period of at least twelve months from the date when the financial statements are authorised for issue.

**Child Bereavement UK (A company limited by guarantee)**
## **Independent auditor’s report to the members of Child Bereavement UK (continued) For the year ended 31 August 2020**
## **Other information**
The trustees are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the annual report, other than the financial statements and our auditor’s report thereon. Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and, except to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in our report, we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.
In connection with our audit of the financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whether there is a material misstatement in the financial statements or a material misstatement of the other information. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information; we are required to report that fact.
We have nothing to report in this regard.
## **Other matters prescribed by the Companies Act 2006**
In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of the audit:
- the information given in the Trustees’ Annual Report which includes the Chairman’s statement for the financial year for which the financial statements are prepared is consistent with the financial statements; and
- the Trustees’ Annual Report which includes the Chairman’s statement has been prepared in accordance with applicable legal requirements.
## **Matters on which we are required to report by exception**
In the light of the knowledge and understanding of the charitable company and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the Trustees’ Annual Report.
We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters where the Companies Act 2006 and the Charities Accounts (Scotland) Regulations 2006 (as amended) require us to report to you if, in our opinion:
- proper and adequate accounting records have not been kept, or returns adequate for our audit have not been received from branches not visited by us; or
- the financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records and returns; or
- certain disclosures of trustees’ remuneration specified by law are not made; or
- we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit; or
- the trustees were not entitled to prepare the financial statements in accordance with the small companies regime and take advantage of the small companies exemption in preparing the Trustees’ Annual Report.

**Child Bereavement UK (A company limited by guarantee)**
## **Independent auditor’s report to the members of Child Bereavement UK (continued) For the year ended 31 August 2020**
## **Responsibilities of trustees**
As explained more fully in the Trustees’ Responsibilities Statement set out on page 7 and 8, the trustees (who are also directors of the charitable company for the purposes of company law) are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view, and for such internal control as the trustees determine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the financial statements, the trustees are responsible for assessing the charitable company’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the trustees either intend to liquidate the charitable company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative to do so.
## **Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements**
We have been appointed as auditors under the Charities and Trustee Investment (Scotland) Act 2005 and under the Companies Act 2006 and report in accordance with regulations made under those Acts.
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs (UK) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.
A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located on the Financial Reporting Council’s website at: www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our auditor’s report.
## **Use of our report**
This report is made solely to the charitable company’s members, as a body, in accordance with Chapter 3 of Part 16 of the Companies Act 2006, and to the charitable company’s trustees as a body, in accordance with Regulation 10 of the Charities Accounts (Scotland) Regulations 2006. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the charitable company’s members and trustees those matters we are required to state to them in an auditor’s report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the charitable company, the charitable company’s members and trustees as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.

**Notes to the financial statements For the year ended 31 August 2020**
## **1. Accounting policies**
The principal accounting policies adopted, judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty in the preparation of the financial statements are as follows:
## **1.1**
## **Basis of preparation**
The accounts (financial statements) have been prepared in accordance with Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2015) – (Charities SORP (FRS 102)), the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland and the Companies Act 2006.
Child Bereavement UK meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102. Assets and liabilities are initially recognised at historical cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant accounting policy note.
There are no material uncertainties regarding the Charity’s ability to continue as a going concern.
Reference to the ‘Charity’ in these financial statements means the ‘charitable company’ and reference to the ‘Trustees’ means the ‘Directors’ / ‘Members’.
## **1.2 Income**
Income from donations and grants, including capital donations, are recognised once the Charity has entitlement to the income, it is probable that the income will be received, and the amount of income receivable can be measured reliably. In addition, the Charity has received benefits from several benefactors in respect of assistance in the running of training courses. Such benefits are excluded from the statement of financial activities.
Other types of income are recognised on the same basis:
Publication sales – represent the sale of the Charity’s publications, such as books, DVDs and other literature, sold to training and conference delegates as well as to third party purchasers.
Training income – represents charges made by the Charity to delegates attending training workshops and conferences, and charges in respect of lectures and talks given by the Charity’s staff.
Consultancy fees – represent charges made for advice and support provided to other organisations.

## **Notes to the financial statements (continued) For the year ended 31 August 2020**
## **1. Accounting policies**
**(continued)**
## **1.3 Expenditure**
Expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to make a payment to a third party, it is probable that settlement will be required and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably.
All expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all costs related to the category. Expenditure involving more than one category has been apportioned by the Trustees on a reasonable, justifiable and consistent basis, involving estimating proportions of staff time.
## **1.4 Allocation of support costs**
Support costs comprise all costs involving the public accountability of the Charity and its compliance with regulation and good practice. These costs include costs related to statutory audit and legal fees together with an apportionment of overhead and support costs relating to trustee board meetings.
Support costs are allocated to the cost of raising funds and charitable activities in accordance with Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice.
These costs have been allocated in proportion to the cost of each activity.
## **1.5 Tangible fixed assets**
Depreciation is provided on tangible fixed assets at the following annual rates in order to write them off over their estimated useful lives:
Leasehold improvements Lease term Fixtures and fittings 10% straight line Office equipment 25% straight line
## **1.6 Fixed asset investments**
Investments are initially recognised at their transaction value and subsequently measured at their market value as at the balance sheet date using the closing quoted market price. The statement of financial activities includes the net gains and losses arising on revaluation and disposals throughout the year.
## **1.7 Stock**
Merchandise items are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Cost is based on the cost of purchase on a first in first out basis.

## **Notes to the financial statements (continued) For the year ended 31 August 2020**
## **1. Accounting policies**
## **(continued)**
## **1.8**
## **Financial instruments**
The Charity has only financial assets and liabilities that would qualify as basic financial instruments.
Basic financial assets, which include cash and debtors, are initially measured at transaction price including transaction costs and subsequently carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Financial assets classified as receivable within one year are not amortised.
Basic financial liabilities such as trade creditors, loans and finance leases are initially measured at transaction price unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the debt instrument is measured at the present value of the future payments discounted at the market rate of interest. Financial liabilities classified as payable within one year are not amortised.
An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of the Charity after deducting all of its liabilities.
## **1.9 Fund accounting**
General fund represents 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 incorporate grants and donations, which, although contributing towards the general objectives of the Charity, carry specific instructions by the donor as to how the monies should be applied. At the balance sheet date, the accumulated balance represents those sums which have yet to be applied in the manner instructed. The Trustees are of the opinion that there are sufficient liquid assets available to meet the Charity’s obligations imposed by the restricted funds, all of which are short term, and that it is not necessary to appropriate assets into a separate fund.
## **1.10 Leases**
Rentals under operating leases are charged in the statement of financial activities on a straight line basis over the lease term.
## **1.11**
## **Pension costs**
The Charity operates a defined contribution pension scheme. Contributions are charged to the income and expenditure account as they fall due.

During the year as a result of COVID19 the Board undertook a major restructuring project to preserve the Charity's cashflow and analyse where significant cost savings could be made in order to preserve the Charity's ability to continue as a going concern. All expenditure has been agreed post year end and settlement of the year end provision for the restructuring costs is scheduled to be incurred between October and December 2020.

Funds of £1,000,000 are designated by the Trustees to protect the ability to meet employment obligations and other essential core costs in the future. During the year these funds were invested into a long term investment fund (see note 12). £164,056 (2019: £109,402) has been received as cumulative dividends earned on this fund and £157,899 (2019: £140,522) was the cumulative gain made on revaluation at the year end. The Charity is totally dependent on having well trained and experienced staff and infrastructure which can only be achieved by maintaining a stable and dedicated work force. In line with its stated Reserves Policy, the Charity needs to retain sufficient funds to give it the financial security to follow its strategic plan and ensure its ability to retain experienced people and work with the certainty that it could withstand a temporary fall in income.
A full analysis of balances and movements on restricted funds is disclosed in note 21.
