Statement of Trustees' Responsibilities

Charity Law requires the trustees to prepare the financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the Charity as at the Balance Sheet date and of its surplus or deficit for that year. In preparing those financial statements, the trustees are required to:

select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
make adjustments and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
state whether the policies adopted are in accordance with the relevant legislation and with applicable accounting standards, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements;
prepare the financial statements on a going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the Charity will continue in business.

The trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time its financial position and to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Statement of Recommended Practice, Accounting and Reporting by Charities SORP (March 2005), applicable accounting standards and the Charities Act. They are also responsible for safeguarding its assets and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention of fraud and other irregularities.

Accountants

A resolution for the reappointment of Whiteside and Davies will be proposed at the forthcoming general meeting.

1 ACCOUNTING POLICIES Cont.

Debtors

Short term debtors are measured at transaction price (which is usually the invoice price), less any impairment losses for bad and doubtful debts. Loans and other financial assets are initially recognised at transaction price including any transaction costs and subsequently measured at amortised cost determined using the effective interest method, less any impairment losses for bad and doubtful debts.

Creditors

Short term creditors are measured at transaction price (which is usually the invoice price). Loans and other financial liabilities are initially recognised at transaction price net of any transaction costs and subsequently measured at amortised cost determined using the effective interest method.

Foreign currency translation

Transactions in foreign currencies are initially recognised at the rate of exchange ruling at the date of the transaction. At the end of each reporting period foreign currency monetary items are translated at the closing rate of exchange. Non-monetary items that are measured at historical cost are translated at the rate ruling at the date of the transaction. All differences are charged to profit or loss.

Pensions

Contributions to defined contribution plans are expensed in the period to which they relate.

Investments

Investments in subsidiaries, associates and joint ventures are measured at cost less any accumulated impairment losses. Listed investments are measured at fair value, unlisted investments are measured at fair value unless the value cannot be measured reliably, in which case they are measured at cost less accumulated impaired loss. Changes in fair value are recorded in the profit and loss account.

Restricted and unrestricted funds

Restricted funds are those funds which have been donated for specified restricted purposes and are held in separate funds. Unrestricted funds are those which are used at the discretion of the trustees.
