**THE NORTH TYNESIDE CARERS' CENTRE (A COMPANY LIMITED BY GUARANTEE) TRUSTEES' REPORT (INCLUDING DIRECTORS' REPORT) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021**
The trustees present their report and financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2021.
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies set out in note 1 to the financial statements and comply with the charity's Memorandum and Articles of Association , the Companies Act 2006 and "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 2019)".
## **Objectives and activities**
The charity's objects are to improve the quality of life for carers in North Tyneside by supporting them through a high quality service, shaped by carers' needs and is accessible to all carers. Activities include: information & advocacy, emotional support, support groups, training for carers, counselling, carer assessments, the provision of a breaks and activities service and family support.
The trustees have paid due regard to guidance issued by the Charity Commission in deciding what activities the charity should undertake.
## **Achievements and performance**
The mission statement of the North Tyneside Carers' Centre is:
## **"To improve the quality of life for carers in North Tyneside"**
In shaping our objectives for the year and planning our activities, the trustees have considered the Charity Commission's guidance on public benefit, including the guidance 'Public Benefit: Running a charity (PB2)'.
COVID-19 continued to present huge challenges for carers and the organisation during 2020 - 2021. The staff team continued to work from home providing vital emotional and practical support to carers.
Although many carers we spoke to at the beginning of the first lockdown said that they were managing, this quickly began to change at the end of April. Carers reported feeling increasingly anxious, stressed and exhausted the longer restrictions were in place. Not only were they dealing with the anxiety of the pandemic and fear of passing the virus onto the person they cared for, they were also caring for 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, without a break. Many care services were cancelled, young carers were not in school and they were dealing with increased levels of challenging behaviour from the people they cared for.
We saw a huge increase in demand for our service during the year from new and existing carers, parent carers and the complexity of cases due to challenges of caring during the pandemic and referrals. 5,970 adult carers and 446 young carers were registered with the Centre during the year and received regular Covid information bulletins. 3,512 adult carers and 294 young carers accessed a support service during the pandemic.
At a strategic level we continued as a key partner on the North Tyneside Carers Partnership Board: a board made up of key decision makers from health and social care. We continually highlighted the impact of the pandemic on carers and shared the challenges, their experiences and feedback. This resulted in additional support being commissioned by North Tyneside Council and the Clinical Commissioning Group – including therapeutic support for young carers.
Carers were identified in priority group six of the Covid-19 vaccination rollout. We therefore approached the Clinical Commissioning Group and the Primary Care Networks to offer our support. As a result, we led on this work and all carers were directed to the centre to register as a carer, confirm their eligibility for the vaccination and advise them of support available from the Carers’ Centre. 3,304 people contacted the Centre between February and March to enquire about the Covid vaccination. We worked closely with funders to reallocate resources to increase staffing levels for our advice line and spoke to carers about reducing our online activities in order to support with vaccination programme - carers fully supported this decision. The team worked incredibly hard to register new carers and we were delighted to invite over 5,000 carers to book their vaccination appointment.

**THE NORTH TYNESIDE CARERS' CENTRE (A COMPANY LIMITED BY GUARANTEE) TRUSTEES' REPORT (INCLUDING DIRECTORS' REPORT) (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021**
We moved premises in July 2020 to the Saville Exchange in North Shields. Due to national and local lockdowns, we were unable to carry out planned building work until late October. Our involvement in the carers vaccination rollout and the return of staff to the office, meant we had a very quick turnaround to ensure the offices were fully operational. This included risk assessing the premises to ensure they were Covid secure, fitting screens between all the desks and developing guidance for staff to keep people safe.
We worked with the North of Tyne Combined Authority, Carers Northumberland and Newcastle Carers to widen the scope of the Carers into Work Project to support carers who were: struggling to juggle work alongside caring; on sick leave; furloughed; at risk of redundancy and to support young adult carers from the age of 16 years. During the year 38% of carers we worked with entered employment, 3% into education and 3% into training.
During the period the Adult Carers’ Service responded to 4,232 enquiries offering information, advice and support. Additionally, the team undertook 1,459 check in calls with carers who were particularly vulnerable and isolated. We saw a huge increase in the number of carers worried about their finances and requesting information about benefits. We secured funding from the National Lottery Community Fund for a Covid Response Worker to support the increased demand from parent carers and provide benefits advice. The worker supported carers to access over £240,000 in benefits.
We delivered one to one intensive emotional and practical support via the telephone/text and face to face (when restrictions eased) to 426 adult carers, who were struggling to manage their caring responsibilities. Many of these carers were looking after someone with dementia or a mental health difficulty. We supported carers to develop strategies to manage and respond to challenging behaviour and ensured they took time out to support their own wellbeing. We delivered 243 online sessions, which included wellbeing sessions, workshops, peer support groups and social activities to give carers the opportunity to connect with others, look after their own wellbeing and help them in their caring role.
Family Support Workers from the Young Carers’ Service maintained contact with 294 young carers and their families via the telephone/text and face to face (when restrictions eased). They contacted schools, when they had concerns about young carers who were not in school, who they felt should be and arranged time in school to give the young carers a break from their caring responsibilities; arranged food parcels for families and delivery of prescriptions; provided a vital emotional outlet for many young carers who were struggling with their anxiety and juggling home schooling and caring. They delivered six ‘Heads Up’ emotional wellbeing programmes online to groups of young carers which focused on identifying positives and challenges related to caring responsibilities; managing feelings; friendships; who can help and support networks.
The Breaks and Activities team delivered 233 online sessions with 933 attendances. These sessions provided young carers with a regular break from their caring responsibilities, the opportunity to connect with others and have fun. Resource packs were distributed to young carers from June, to provide the resources needed and encourage them to take part in sessions. 92 social action sessions were delivered online with young carers to help them have a voice and influence local decision making e.g. young carers wrote to their local MPs to highlight their difficulties accessing shopping as a result the big supermarkets recognised young carers as key workers.
Additionally, we secured funding from Comic Relief to increase family support capacity and offer therapeutic support to young carers who were struggling with their mental wellbeing. 240 therapy sessions were delivered to 23 young carers.
## **Financial review**
It is the policy of the charity that unrestricted funds which have not been designated for a specific use should be maintained at a level equivalent to between three and six month’s expenditure. The trustees consider that reserves at this level will ensure that, in the event of a significant drop in funding, they will be able to continue the charity’s current activities while consideration is given to ways in which additional funds may be raised. This level of reserves has been maintained throughout the year.

**THE NORTH TYNESIDE CARERS' CENTRE (A COMPANY LIMITED BY GUARANTEE) TRUSTEES' REPORT (INCLUDING DIRECTORS' REPORT) (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021**
The charity's main source of income are performance related grants of £830,214 (2020: £581,569). The charity also received donations of £2,250 (2020: £1,613), investment income of £2,817 (2020: £2,574) and other income of £12,225 (2020: £7,342). The charity's charitable costs have increased in the year leaving in a surplus of £34,120 (2020: £5,359). All funding received from the Community Foundation should be recognised as Community Foundation Tyne & Wear and Northumberland.
The charity has a net asset worth and reserves of £242,069 at 31 March 2021 (2020: £207,949). The charity's unrestricted reserves totalled £186,645 (2020: £176,401) and are represented by capital assets of £606 (2020: £622) and net current assets of £ £185,039 (2020: £175,779). The charity's restricted reserves totalled £56,424 (2020:£31,548) and are represented by net current assets of £56,424 (2020: £31,548).
## **Risk management**
The trustees have assessed the major risks to which the charity is exposed, and are satisfied that systems are in place to mitigate exposure to the major risks. The greatest risk is the uncertainty of the continuing finance for the charity's projects. Funding streams are monitored closely by the trustees, and new funding is sought for projects well in advance of the expiry of any existing funding. As the charity operates with vulnerable members of the community all staff and volunteers are subject to DBS procedures.
## **COVID-19 risk**
The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic continues to generate a significant level of uncertainty in the global economy. The management team and Board regularly assess the likely effects on the charity's operations in an attempt to mitigate the risk as far as possible.
## **Plans for future periods**
We will continue to work strategically with North Tyneside Carers Partnership Board and partners across health and social care to identify opportunities to increase capacity to support carers and implement a whole system approach to supporting carers. We will share carers feedback and experiences, to influence local decision making.
We will work with the Clinical Commissioning Group and Primary Care Networks to roll out a ‘Carer Friendly Practice Award Scheme’. The aim of the scheme is to improve identification and support of carers in primary care: an area which carers identified as a priority. We will provide training and support to practices to help them achieve the award scheme and gather feedback from carers to determine whether practices have achieved ‘Carer Friendly’ status.
We will continue to work with partners in health and social care on the rollout of the Covid-19 booster vaccination for carers: to keep carers in North Tyneside safe.
We will work with North Tyneside Council to develop and implement a young adult carers assessment and support pathway and develop training modules for professionals. We will seek funding to recruit a Young Adult Carers Worker at the Carers’ Centre, to fill a gap identified by young adults in our current provision.
We will resume work in local communities to deliver support closer to home for carers and link carers into their local communities: to increase their network of support. We will strengthen relationships with local groups and provide training to help them identify and support carers.

**THE NORTH TYNESIDE CARERS' CENTRE (A COMPANY LIMITED BY GUARANTEE) TRUSTEES' REPORT (INCLUDING DIRECTORS' REPORT) (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021**
## **Statement of trustees' responsibilities**
The trustees, who are also the directors of The North Tyneside Carers' Centre for the purpose of company law, are responsible for preparing the Trustees' Report 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 charity and of the incoming resources and application of resources, including the income and expenditure, of the charitable company for that year.
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 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 charity will continue in operation.
The trustees are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.
## **Auditor**
RMT Accountants & Business Advisors Ltd were appointed as auditor to the company and a resolution proposing that they be re-appointed will be put at a General Meeting.
## **Disclosure of information to auditor**
Each of the trustees has confirmed that there is no information of which they are aware which is relevant to the audit, but of which the auditor is unaware. They have further confirmed that they have taken appropriate steps to identify such relevant information and to establish that the auditor is aware of such information.
The trustees' r eport was approved by the Board of Trustees.

**THE NORTH TYNESIDE CARERS' CENTRE (A COMPANY LIMITED BY GUARANTEE) INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF THE NORTH TYNESIDE CARERS' CENTRE**
## **Opinion**
We have audited the financial statements of The North Tyneside Carers' Centre (the ‘charity’) for the year ended 31 March 2021 which comprise the statement of financial activities, the balance sheet, the statement of cash flows and the 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 state of the charitable company's affairs as at 31 March 2021 and of its incoming resources and application of resources, 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.
## **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 charity 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**
In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the trustees' use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate.
Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the charity’s ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.
Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the trustees with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report.
## **Other information**
The other information comprises the information included in the annual report other than the financial statements and our auditor's report thereon. The trustees are responsible for the other information contained within the annual report. 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. 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 course of 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 this gives rise to a material misstatement in the financial statements themselves. 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.
## **Opinions on other matters prescribed by the Companies Act 2006**
In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of our audit:
- the information given in the trustees' r eport, which includes the d irectors ' r eport prepared for the purposes of company law, for the financial year for which the financial statements are prepared is consistent with the financial statements; and
- the d irectors ' r eport included within the trustees' r eport has been prepared in accordance with applicable legal requirements.

**THE NORTH TYNESIDE CARERS' CENTRE (A COMPANY LIMITED BY GUARANTEE) INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT (CONTINUED) TO THE TRUSTEES OF THE NORTH TYNESIDE CARERS' CENTRE**
## **Matters on which we are required to report by exception**
In the light of the knowledge and understanding of the charity and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the d irectors ' r eport included within the trustees' r eport.
We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the Companies Act 2006 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion:
- 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 ' exemptions in preparing the trustees' r eport and from the requirement to prepare a s trategic r eport.
## **Responsibilities of trustees**
As explained more fully in the s tatement of trustees' r esponsibilities, the trustees, who are also the directors of the charity for the purpose 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 charity’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 but to do so.
## **Auditor's responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements**
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.
Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We design procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined above, to detect material misstatements in respect of irregularities, including fraud. The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud, is detailed below .
- 7 -
**THE NORTH TYNESIDE CARERS' CENTRE (A COMPANY LIMITED BY GUARANTEE) INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT (CONTINUED) TO THE TRUSTEES OF THE NORTH TYNESIDE CARERS' CENTRE**
## **Capability of the audit in detecting irregularities, including fraud**
Based on our understanding of the charitable company and the sector in which it operates, we identified that the following laws and regulations are significant to the entity:
Those laws and regulations considered to have a direct effect on the financial statements including UK financial reporting standards, Company Law and Charity Law.
Those laws and regulations for which non-compliance may be fundamental to the operating aspects of the charity and therefore may have a material effect on the financial statements include compliance with charitable objectives, public benefit, fundraising regulations, safeguarding and health and safety legislation.
These matters were discussed amongst the engagement team at the planning stage and the team remained alert throughout the audit.
Audit procedures undertaken in response to the potential risks relating to irregularities (which include fraud and non-compliance with laws and regulations) comprised of: inquiries of management and the Trustees as to whether the entity complies with such laws and regulations; enquiries with the same concerning any actual or potential litigation or claims; inspection of relevant legal correspondence and legal costs incurred; review of Trustee meeting minutes; testing the appropriateness of journal entries; and the performance of analytical review to identify unexpected movements in account balances which may be indicative of fraud.
No instances of material non-compliance were identified. However, the likelihood of detecting irregularities, including fraud, is limited by the inherent difficulty in detecting irregularities, the effectiveness of the entity's controls, and the nature, timing and extent of the audit procedures performed. Irregularities that result from fraud might be inherently more difficult to detect than irregularities that result from error. As explained above, there is an unavoidable risk that material misstatements may not be detected, even though the audit has been planned and performed in accordance with ISAs (UK).
A further description of our responsibilities is available on the Financial Reporting Council’s website at: http s :// 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. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the charitable company's members those matters we are required to state to them in an auditors' 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 and the charitable company’s members as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.

**THE NORTH TYNESIDE CARERS' CENTRE (A COMPANY LIMITED BY GUARANTEE) NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021**
## **1 Accounting policies**
## **Charity information**
The North Tyneside Carers' Centre is a private company limited by guarantee incorporated in England and Wales. The registered office is Suite 9, Saville Exchange, Howard Street, North Shields, Tyne and Wear, NE30 1SE.
## **1.1 Accounting convention**
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the charity's Memorandum and Articles of Association, the Companies Act 2006 and "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 2019)". The charity is a Public Benefit Entity as defined by FRS 102.
The financial statements are prepared in sterling , which is the functional currency of the charity . Monetary a mounts in these financial statements are rounded to the nearest £.
The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention, modified to include the revaluation of freehold properties and to include investment properties and certain financial instruments at fair value. The principal accounting policies adopted are set out below.
## **1.2 Going concern**
At the time of approving the financial statements, the trustees have a reasonable expectation that the charity has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Thus the trustees continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements. This includes taking into account the potential impact of COVID-19 to ensure that cashflow is positively managed and the impact to the charity's operations are mitigated. The Board has concluded that the going concern assumption is appropriate in preparing these financial statements.
## **1.3 Charitable funds**
Unrestricted funds are available for use at the discretion of the trustees in furtherance of their charitable objectives.
Restricted funds are subject to specific conditions by donors as to how they may be used. The purposes and uses of the restricted funds are set out in the notes to the financial statements.
## **1.4 Income**
Income is recognised in the statement of financial activities when the charity is legally entitled to it after any performance conditions have been met, the amounts can be measured reliably, and it is probable that income will be received. The following specific policies are applied to particular categories of income.
Cash donations are recognised on receipt. Other donations are recognised once the charity has been notified of the donation, unless performance conditions require deferral of the amount. Income tax recoverable in relation to donations received under Gift Aid or deeds of covenant is recognised at the time of the donation.
Grants where entitlement is not conditional on the delivery of a specific performance by the charity are recognised when the charity becomes unconditionally entitled to the grant. Where grants are conditional to performance and specific deliverables, the grant is accounted for as the charity earns the right to consideration by its performance.
Investment income comprises interest received on cash balances and is included on the statement of financial activities when receivable.

## **1 Accounting policies**
## **(Continued)**
## **1.5 Expenditure**
All expenditure is accounted for on an accrual basis and has been classified under the headings that aggregate all costs to that category. Irrecoverable VAT is charged against the expenditure incurred.
Charitable activity costs includes expenditure relating to the operation of the charity and includes both direct and support costs relating to those activities.
Costs of generating funds are those costs incurred in attracting voluntary income.
Support costs include central function expenditure and are allocated on the basis of staff allocated to each activity.
Governance costs include those incurred in the governance of the charity and its assets, and are primarily associated with constitutional and statutory requirements.
The charity allocates costs direct to activities as far as possible, then identifies the remaining costs of its support functions. The chairty then identifies those costs which relate to the governance function. Having identified its governance costs, the remaining support costs are allocated to the charity's principal activity.
## **1.6 Tangible fixed assets**
Tangible fixed assets are initially measured at cost and subsequently measured at cost or valuation, net of depreciation and any impairment losses.
Depreciation is recognised so as to write off the cost or valuation of assets less their residual values over their useful lives on the following bases:
Office Equipment
33% straight line or over the life of a specific project
The gain or loss arising on the disposal of an asset is determined as the difference between the sale proceeds and the carrying value of the asset, and is recognised in net income/(expenditure) for the year.
## **1.7 Impairment of fixed assets**
At each reporting end date, the charity reviews the carrying amounts of its tangible assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss (if any ) .
## **1.8 Cash and cash equivalents**
Cash and cash equivalents include cash in hand, deposits held at call with banks, other short-term liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less, and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are shown within borrowings in current liabilities.
## **1.9 Financial instruments**
The charity has elected to apply the provisions of Section 11 ‘Basic Financial Instruments’ and Section 12 ‘Other Financial Instruments Issues’ of FRS 102 to all of its financial instruments.
Financial instruments are recognised in the charity 's balance sheet when the charity becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.
Financial assets and liabilities are offset, with the net amounts presented in the financial statements, when there is a legally enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.

**THE NORTH TYNESIDE CARERS' CENTRE (A COMPANY LIMITED BY GUARANTEE) NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021**
## **2 Critical accounting estimates and judgements**
In the application of the charity’s accounting policies, the trustees are required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amount of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised where the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods where the revision affects both current and future periods.
