## **YEAR ENDED 31ST AUGUST 2024**
## **RESERVES POLICY**
The trustees aim to maintain reserves at a level of above two to four months of charitable expenditure. The trustees consider that this will provide sufficient funds to ensure that support and governance costs are covered. The trustees consider that this level of reserves will be sufficient to give adequate flexibility in covering future costs.
## **STATEMENT OF TRUSTEES' RESPONSIBILITIES FOR THE ANNUAL ACCOUNTS**
Law application to charities in England and Wales requires the trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the charity’s financial activities during the year and of its financial position at the end of the year. In preparing financial statements giving a true and fair view, the trustees should follow best practice and:
- Select suitable accounting policies and apply them consistently;
- Make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
- State whether applicable accounting standards have been followed (subject to any 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
- charity will continue in operation.
The trustees have complied with the duty in the 2011 Charities Act to have due regard to guidance published by the Charity Commission, and the accounts have been prepared applying the FRS 102 SORP rules to disclose a true and fair position.
The trustees are responsible for keeping accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy the financial position of the charity at any time and which enable the trustees to ensure that the financial statements comply with applicable law. The trustees are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and for their proper application, and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud.

## **INDEPENDENT EXAMINERS REPORT**
## **YEAR ENDED 31ST AUGUST 2024**
I report to the trustees on my examination of the financial statements of Royal Glamorgan Postgraduate Medical Centre Association (the charity) for the year ended 31 August 2024.
## **Responsibilities and basis of report**
As the charity’s trustees you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 (‘the Act’).
I report in respect of my examination of the charity’s accounts carried out under section 145 of the Act and in carrying out my examination I have followed all the applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Act.
## **Independent examiner's statement**
I have completed my examination. I confirm that no material matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe that in any material respect:
- 1.�accounting records were not kept in respect of the charity as required by section 130 of the Act; or
- 2.�the accounts do not accord with those records
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.

## **NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS**
## **YEAR ENDED 31ST AUGUST 2024**
## 1 **ACCOUNTING POLICIES**
## a) **Accounting convention**
These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with FRS 102 "The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland" (FRS 102); "Accounting and Reporting by Charities"; The Statement of Recommended Practice for charities applying FRS 102; The Companies Act 2006 and UK Generally Accepted Accounting Practice as it applies from 1 January 2015. The Charity is a FRS 102 Public Benefit Entity as defined by the FRS 102 SORP.
The accounts have been prepared under the historical cost convention. The principal accounting policies are set out below.
The Trust has relied on the provisions of Sections 394 and 395 of the Companies Act 2006 as a charity.
## b) **Going Concern**
At the time of approving the accounts, the trustees have a reasonable expectation that the charity has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Therefore the trustees continue to adopt the going concern basis.
## c) **Charitable Funds**
Unrestricted funds are trust funds which as such are available for use or retention at the discretion of the trustees, in accordance with the Trust's objects. Reserves are undesignated trust funds. Designated funds comprise trust funds which have been set aside by the trustees for specific purposes.
Restricted funds are trust funds subject to specific restrictive conditions imposed by sponsors as donors or by the declared purpose in Appeals literature. Where the restriction creates an endowment (whether expendable or permanent), the grant or donation is accounted for as a capital fund. The unrestricted income from general-purpose endowments is accounted for within corporate funds. All other non-capital restricted funds are accounted for as restricted income.
## d) **Incoming resources**
All other income is accounted for on a receivable basis. Any general-purpose grants whose use is restricted by the grantor to some future accounting period are accounted for as deferred income until the restriction has been satisfied.
## e) **Resources expended**
All expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis, and where incurred directly to further the Trust's charitable objects is shown under the heading of direct charitable expenditure.
## f) **Depreciation**
The Charity does not own any tangible fixed assets and no depreciation is charged.
