Without our 5UPPOrters, children who care for their ill mums and dad5, worry about where their next meal will come from, or fall behind at school and struggle to make friends would never get break. Never get a chance to explore the great outdoors, go on adventures, or toast marshmallows by the fireside with new friends. Go Beyond puts magic into their lives. Over the last 30 years, we have given over 19,000 vulnerable children breaks. For one week, they pack their troubles away and discover a life that's full of fun, laughter and imagination. By getting out and getting involved. Go Beyond's biggest hope is for each child to go home knowing they can achieve more than they ever thought possible, inspired by what the world can offer them. and what they in turn can offer the world. Every break is provided totally free- of- charge for all the children and young people. Our Values PUT CHILDREN FIRST Put children at the centre of our charity, make them our priority, involve them in shaping our work, listen to their voices. DO THE RIGHTTHING Be open and honest, think sustainably, act with respect. Champion equality and have the courage to challenge. PUSH THE BOUNDARIES Be curious, seek opportunities, embrace change and build resilience. WORK AS A TEAM Listen and learn, grow together, set clear goals, measure the impact, and make it happen. "I bet coming to Go Beyond is the greatest th(n8 I'll ever do in my life. Rex., who came for a Go Beyond break in 2023 Go Beyond Annual Report and Accounts 2023 Chairs report: message from our CEO and Chair of Trustees The increase in demand for our break5 made us more determined than ever to invest in our infrastructure and look to the future so we can help many more children. Overthe course of the year, we made many improvements to enhance the experience, safety and comfort for children, volunteers and staff at both sites. We invested in our staff and trained our breaks leaders with national qualifications such as the Lowland Leaders Award, meaning we can now take children on guided walks around Cornwall and the Peak district, showing them the wonder of the outdoor5, and encouraging them to love and care for their environment. We were delighted that our Daleside Centre was designated an Ambassador Site for the Peak District. For many, 2023 will be remembered for the cost-of-living crisis. As the price of food and other essentials soared, many people were having to choose between heating and eating with a rise in homelessness. Over 4.3 million children were living in poverty, according to the Child Poverty Action Group. Parents and carers could not afford to have a holiday or even a day trip to the beach or countryside. Instead, for many families, meals were skipped, and children went hungry, often sharing a bed and never having the chance to run, laugh and play. These children were missing out on simple, much- loved childhood experiences and, as a result. were left lonely and isolated. Prudent investment of the proceeds of the sale of our Moorland Centre in 2022 has strengthened our Capital Improvement Fund for our Going Beyond Program. We have started to shape ideas to extend our facilities in order to offer more breaks and develop our fantastic centres. This crisis made Go Beyond's offer ofa break for children living difficult lives more essential than ever. Every week we saw how giving children space away from the worries and pressures they faced at home to spend time playing, having adventures and making new friends, gave them the opportunity to grow in confidence, explore nature, learn new skills and improve their emotional and physical wellbeing, and the opportunity to develop an early passion for the environment. We are proud of our response to this crisis and the resulting increase we witnessed in demand for our breaks. Our board took the tough decision to close our three charity shops,. their last trading day occurred on 4th November 2023. Despite best efforts, they had been struggling to generate the income the charity had anticipated when the strategy was first created back in 2018. Closing the shops, planning our move to a smaller head office, and focusing more closely on our Coastal and Daleside centres is part of the journey of consolidation that has been driving our Business Plan since 2021. In 2023, 913 children stayed with us at one of our two centres.. Coastal in Cornwall and Daleside in the Peak District. Having bounced back strongly from the pandemic, we spent the year developing lasting partnerships with professionals who refer children to our services and share our values, especially those based in areas of deprivation. national spotlight was shone upon the relevance of our work in 2023. As the Telegraph chose us as one of their national Christmas Appeal charities and wrote many articles about the children who have come on a life changing break. The BBC also featured our opinions on the cost-of-living crisis, highlighting the plight of many families unable to afford day trips and holidays and the impact we saw it having on children. While a journalist from the Sunday Times volunteered on a break and wrote about leaving with a 'ready brek glow,. All of this press coverage led to an uplift in audience interest and engagement, helping to raise our profile to a new level. Since 2021, we have seen a steep rise in the number of children referred for reasons relating to their mental wellbeing,. anxiety, low mood and loneliness among them. In 2023, 22Yo ofthe children referred were living with domestic violence and over one third were young carers. Our support goes beyond simply offering time away, as we help the children learn new skills, build resilience to deal with the challenges they face and improve their communication skills to ask for help. Go Beyond Annual Report and Accounts 2023 Our thanks go to the loyal supporters, companies and donors who made huge efforts to continue their support and. in many cases. increase their donations in 2023. New companies joined our Go Beyond family, and partnerships were formed, as more and more people were driven to help children living in poverty have a break away from their tough circumstances. We will welcome many more children with open arms knowing that a break with us will bring them joy now and give them memories that will last a lifetime - precisely why this charity of over 30 years exists.

Go Beyond Annual Report and Accounts 2023 A year of giving breaks that last a lifetime Picture orienteering treasure hunts across our fields, surfing the waves, wandering through national parks, observing the stars, and gathering around the campfire for toasting marshmallows. These unique experiences are at the heart of a Go Beyond break, offering a sanctuary from daily struggles,. a place where children can forge positive connections with people and the world around them, creating memories that last a lifetime. Our Referral Coordinators work with teachers, social workers and care professionals to identify children living in difficult or seriously challenging circumstances and place them on a break. They may have a shared experience of caring for someone else, they may have experienced bereavement, and they are likely to live in a similar area and be close in age. Our breaks form an important part of the ongoing wider support for these children. From the moment of anticipation when a child knows they can look forward to coming on a break, we know we can make a difference by offering something exciting and Ljnique that is so different to other forms of support they might be experiencin9. A Go Beyond break is something they can be proud of. All children supported by a Go Beyond break are between 8 and 13 years of age. Our group sizes are kept deliberately small at no more than 16 children per break. This gives our staff, volunteers and children time to get to know one another. We aim to make our breaks something like a large family holiday, with everyone sitting down together to eat home-cooked meals. These breaks, filled with adventure, play, and the joy of forming new friendships, are designed to enhance both emotional and physical well-being. Crucial to this experience are our expert break leaders, whose diverse backgrounds such as teaching, social work, and youth work, alongside our dedicated volunteers, ensure a rich and supportive environment. With a high adult- to-child ratio, we provide personalised pastoral care, ensuring each child receives the attention and encouragement they need to thrive.

Our commitment to a completely screen-free experience enables children to disconnect from digital distractions and immerse themselves in the outdoors. For many of the children and young people we support, especially those from inner cities. this break provides their first encounter with the beautiful beaches or the rolling fields a truly eye-opening introduction to the wonders of nature. Go Beyond Annual Report and Accounts 2023 We are dedicated to ensuring no child is forgotten after their break. On departure, every child leaves with a goodie bag filled with treats and positive memory prompts made by our Break Leaders, including a photo collage of their most precious moments and a toy of their choice from our toy store. In their bag is also paper and a FREEPOST envelope so the children can write to us without any barriers to communication. We guarantee a personal response to every letter, continuing our support for as long as we can. We also celebrate each child by sending them a birthday card, personally signed by the entire break team and volunteers, as well as a Christmas card and a gift from Go Beyond, often the only present they receive. We know these experiences help to deepen the impact our break had. In 2023. we provided breaks for 913 children. In our Five Year Strategy we said we would provide 5000 breaks between 2023 and 2028. We are well on our way. There is no shortage of demand and our calendar for 2024 is filling fast. As we look forwards, we are determined to find ways for even more children to join us. We are equally determined to make sure we use our growing networks to reach children who need a break the most. .rJ The following letter was received from a little girl who attended a Go Beyond break in 2023 Sor)& Its ltsOLD 13% OFCHILDREN WERE SUBJECTTO CHILD PROTEcfioN QR DEEMED A CHIL9 IN NEED 68.8% OFYOUNG PEOPLE WERE REFERRED FROM THE 40% MOST DEPRIVED AREAgOFTHE UK 67 I% WERE ELIGIBLE TO RECEIVE PUPIL PREMIUM 55.6%0F CHILDREN WERE ELIGIBLE FOR FREE SCHOOL MEALS ON RETURNING HOME, CHILDREN SAID 85% 86% 82% I ENJOY WHAT EAC NEW DAY BRINGS I LIKE BEING OUTOOORS I THINK THERE ARE MANY TNINGS I CAN BE PROUD OF 82% 80% 83% I'VE BEEN GETTING QN WELL WIT PEOPLE 5 THINK LOTS OF PEOPLE CARE ABOUT ME I'VE BEEN IN A GQQD MQQD Our breaks simply would not happen without our supporters In 2023, we enjoyed continued support from the brilliant companies that partner with us, as well as gaining new partnerships. Corporate volunteers helped at our centres, creating new orienteering courses, digging veg patches and sprucing up our sports bams. These will help us to provide fun and confidence building activities for children into the future. Corporates held Welly Stomp events and PJ Days to help raise funds as well as donating some amazing gifts in kind, filling up our toy cupboards, providing comfy bedding for children to sleep on, Easter eggs, selection boxes at Christmas, fancy dress Costumes to play in and decorations for our centres at Halloween, Christmas and Easter. Our Trust and Foundation portfolio continued to grow over 2023.

A bi8 Go Beyond thank you to all our supporters, you helped Us Ivnd the Ivn in 2023 Read all about us.... In 2023 we worked hard on our communications. We held a series of webinars, inviting supporters from Trusts, individuals and corporates to come and hear from our CEO about the impact our breaks were making. We sent our appeals to over 11.000 people in 2023. highlighting stories of the children that came on our breaks. Supporters were inspired to donate gifts from £5- £25,000 understanding that whether they were funding a whole break or the cost of an ice cream at the beach they were funding children to experience a moment that could inspire the rest of their lives. The above came together with the national press coverage of Go Beyond, with interviews on Radio 4, Five Live and BBC News alongside features in the Sunday Times and Telegraph, all driving increased interest and engagement in our work. Special thanks go to our patrons for supporting our work with the media, particularly Jenny Agutter, Kate Winslet and David Gower for appearing in interviews with The Telegraph Our environment is everything We know that by investing in our centres we are investing in our breaks and the experiences of every child and volunteer. Our mission is to make the environment as special and impactful as P055ible and a memorable, positive experience. This is an important part of our magic,. starting from the first time children arrive at one of our stunning centres surrounded by green views and fresh air, finishing only when they settle down in a cozy bed with a fresh duvet and a tummy full of delicious food and snacks. We have over 73 acres of land, over 50 beds, sports and craft barns, chillout areas and playrooms to make their experience-the best it can be. All children deserve the right to the highest standard of accommodation and facilities, and we aim to provide the best, which is why we are continually developing our centres and investing in an exciting future for them. Sustainability Sustainability is at the core of our improvements. Progress has included improving our recycling, managing energy usage and taking a keener interest in land-management and biodiversity. As part of our Sustainability Policy we are looking to reduce our use of vehicles, purchase locally to reduce impact and increase our use of recycled materials. Reducing single use plastics and paper waste is a priority. We will continue this work next year and beyond, as it is vital to protect and enhance our environment, for the future of our charity and for the lives of children. As we look ahead, we want to introduce more activities focusing on the benefits of being in nature and protecting our natural world,. new den-building areas, wildlife engagement areas and better bushcraft spaces. In 2023 we started extensive groundworks to bring three-phase electricity to Coastal. In time, this will open up the possibility of solar energy which is part of our drive to be more sustainable. A similar project is planned at Daleside. In 2023 we became an Ambassador site for the Peak District National Park and our craft room now proudly displays a mural and maps of the local area. We actively promote the unique qualities of the Peak District when children visit to engage them with local nature. In our Coastal Centre our strong link with the sea is also celebrated and beach visits form an integral part of our program. 16 Go Beyond Annual Report and Accounts 2023 We never stop working to make our centres comfortable and exciting for every child. Here are some of the things we achieved in 2023.. Replaced every mattress 0 Redecorated centres < Cleared a pond ready for activities rf Installed orienteering courses at Daleside and Coastal Created veg patches for children to enjoy gardening < Installed a clean and energy-efficient new kitchen at Coastal Built a toy store at each centre. full of donated new toys that children 9et to pick from at the end of their stay with us Looking ahead In 2024, we plan to carry out some essential improvements to our long, sweeping, rural driveway at Daleside which was damaged by the wet winterweather. The excitement ofthe first glimpse of our centre, nestled in the Peak District, sets the tone for a visit. Investing in our driveway will make access safe and an unforgettable arrival experience that children will not forget. We will also be investing in improved fencing to create a secure area where, in time, children will get to experience camping as part of our Going Beyond Program. In Cornwall, we plan to build new, exciting outdoor areas for activities. Going Beyond Program While our recent focus has been ?11 about rebuilding and consolidating our work, we are now starting to look towards a more ambitious future where more children can join a break and enjoy our facilities. We have engaged architects at both centres who have been busy creating sketchbooks to help us with ideas and options for additional, more accessible accommodation and to provide more scope for generating income to help sustain Go Beyond into the future.

We were also featured as one ofthe four charities chosen for the Telegraph's national Christmas Appeal. The gross reported expenditure of the charity was £1,514,274 for the 12 months ended 31 March 2023.

The Capital Improvement Fund has been designated to allow us to maximise the use of our centres and invest in our facilities to grow the number of children we can accommodate beyond 1000, reduce our unit costs. and to become more sustainable. Reserves Policy The amount we hold in reserves is determined using our annual budget. We set our reserves at a level which would cover our essential running costs for a period of between two and six months. We consider our essential running costs as those things we would have to do, even if we were not able to operate our programme during this period. When considering what are essentials costs are, we assume: A major crisis hits All income generating activity stops 18 Go Beyond Annual Report and Accounts 2023 Our annual budget is taken as the basis for all calculations Based on these calculations for the 2024 financial year, we need to hold between £277,000 and £832.000 in reserves. Our current free reserves amount to £557,138 which equates to 4 months of expenditure. Trustee's Report Risk Management The Trustees have a risk management strategy which comprises.. a regular review of the corporate risk register and the establishment of systems and procedures to mitigate those risks identified in the plan and the implementation of procedures designed to minimise any potential impact on the Charity should those risks materialise. The risk management strategy will continue to be reviewed on an ongoing basis. Public Benefit The Trustees confirm that they have complied with the requirements of Section 17 of the Charities Act 2011 to have due regard to the public benefit guidance published by the Charity Commission for England and Wales. The Charity's Trustees have complied with their duty in Section 4 of the Charities Act 2011 to have dLJe regard to Public Benefit guidance issued by the Charity Commission. The Trustees do not receive any private benefit from the Charity. Going Concern In assessing our going concern status, we have prepared forecasts for 2023 which assume breaks will be operational throughout the year at both our Coastal and Daleside centres and there will be no substantial changes to our structure. This indicates we will remain cash positive with a cash headroom that is sustained throughout the next twelve months, using the current annual run rate of income and costs. We have also prepared financial models to estimate the level to which our income could drop before we become unable to provide breaks at our centres. We are satisfied that any drop in our income would need to be substantial for this to happen. However, we have identified further potential mitigating actions, should this pessimistic view of income prevail, to ensure we continue to provide as full a service as possible to vulnerable young people and the other beneficiaries of our programmes. The Board of Trustees has confidence that there is a sound understanding of the financial position and sufficient scope to take these mitigating actions to preserve the long-term future of the Charity if required. Accordingly, the Board does not consider there to be any material uncertainties and have prepared the accounts on a going concern basis. Governance update Throughout 2023 the Trustees continue to recognise that good governance is critical to the success of the charity and upheld the Charity Govemance Code. Trustee Recruitment and onboarding continued in 2023 and 2 new members were appointed adding to the depth, range and diversity of relevant experience.

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 Charity or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so. Auditor 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 IU Kl 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.. As part of our audit planning, through discussions with management. we obtained an understanding of the legal and regulatory framework that is applicable to the group and the sector in which it operate5 to identify the key law5 and regulations affecting the group. The key laws and regulations we identified were General Data Protection Regulations IGDPRI, Fundraising Regulations for charities, health and safety, and employment laws. We also considered those laws and regulations that have a direct impact on the preparation of the financial statements, primarily the Companies Act 2006, the Charities Act, relevant tax compliance regulations in the UK, and reporting framework Icharities SORP - FRS 1021. We discussed with management how the compliance with these laws and regulations is monitored and we discussed the policies and procedures in place. We also identified the individuals who have responsibility for ensuring that the entity complies with laws and regulations and deals with reporting any issues if they arise. As part of our planning procedures, we assessed the risk of any non-compliance with laws and regulations on the group's ability to continue trading and the risk of material misstatement to the accounts. Based on this understanding we designed our audit procedures to identify non-compliance with such laws and regulations. Our procedures involved the following.. Enquiries of management and those charged with governance regarding their knowledge of any non-compliance with laws and regulations that could affect the financial statements- 24 Go Beyond Annual Report and Accounts 2023 Review of legal and professional costs to identify any possible non compliance or legal costs in respect of non compliance; Review of Board minute5,' and Review of whistleblowing record As part of our enquiries we discussed with management whether there have been any known instances, allegations or suspicions of fraud, of which there were none. We also evaluated the risk of fraud through management override including that arising from management's incentives. The key risks we identified were misappropriation of cash, and we determined that the principal risks were related to misallocation of restricted funds. In response to the identified risk, as part of our audit work we= Used data analytics to test journal entries throughout the year, for appropriateness,. Evaluated the rationale of significant transfers between restricted and unrestricted reserves., Reviewed income supporting documentation for any restrictions and compared this to how it had been recognised in the financial ststements; Reviewed estimates and judgements made in the accounts for any indication of bias and challenged assumptions used by management in making the estimates,. and Tested a sample of till receipts through to cash banked. Because of the inherent limitations of an audit, there is a risk that we will not detect all irregularities, including those leading to a material misstatement in the financial statements. This risk increases the further removed non-compliance with laws and regulations is from the events and transactions reflected in the financial statements as we are less likely to become aware of instances of non-compliance. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement due to fraud is higher than the risk of not detecting one resulting from error, as fraud may involve deliberate concealment, collusion, omission or misrepresentation. As part of an audit in accordance with ISAS IUKI, we exercise professional judgement and maintain professional scepticism throughout the audit. We also.. Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufpicient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions. misrepresentations. or the override of internal control. Obtain an understanding of intemal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the group's internal control. Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by the Trustees. Conclude on the appropriateness of the Trustees, use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the group's or the parent charitable company's ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor's report to the related disclosures in the financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor's report. However, future events or conditions 25 Go Beyond Annual Report and Accounts 2023 may cause the group or the parent charitable company to cease to continue as a going concern. Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation. Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or business activities within the group to express an opinion on the financial statements. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the group audit. We remain solely responsible for our audit opinion. We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit. Use of our report This report is made solely to the charitable parent charity's Trustees, 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 group's 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 parent company and its charity's Trustees as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.

These policies have been consistently applied to all the years presented. unless otherwise stated. Ststement of compliance The financial statement5 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 IFRS 1021 (effective - October 20191. They also comply with the Companies Act 2006 and Charities Act 2011. Basis of preparation Go Beyond Charity 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 notes. Basis of consolidation The consolidated financial statements consolidate the financial statements of the Charity and its subsidiary undertaking drawn up to 31 December 2023. No Statement of Financial Activitie5 is presented for the Charity as permitted by Section 408 of the Companies Act 2006. No Cash Flow Statement has been presented for the Charity as permitted by FRS102. The Charity achieved net income for the financial year of £286,85612022 £316,596). A subsidiary is an entity controlled by the Charity. Control is achieved where the Charity has the power to govern the financial and operating policies of an entity so as to obtain benefits from its activities. 32 Go Beyond Annual Report and Accounts 2023 Notes to the Financial Statements Year Ended 31 December 2023 Inter-company transactions, balances and unrealised gains on transactions between the Charity and its subsidiaries, which are related parties, are eliminated in full. Going concem In assessing our going concern status, we have prepared forecasts for 2024 which assume breaks will be operational throughout the year at both our Coastal and Daleside centres and there will be no change in staffing structure. This indicates we will remain cash positive with a cash headroom that is sustained throughout the next twelve months, using the current annual run rate of income and costs. We have also prepared financial models to estimate the level to which our income could drop before we become unable to provide breaks at our centres. We are satisfied that any drop in our income would need to be SLJbstantial for this to happen. However, we have identified further potential mitigating actions, should this pessimistic view of income prevail, to ensure we continue to provide as full a service as possible to vulnerable young people and the other beneficiaries of our programmes. The Board have confidence that there is a sound understanding of the financial position and sufficient scope to take these mitigating actions to preserve the long-term future of the Charity if required. Accordingly. the Board of Trustees do not consider there to be any material uncertainties and have prepared the accounts on a going concern basis. Income and endowments All income is recognised once the Charity has entitlement to the income, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount of the income receivable can be measured reliably. Donations and legacies Donations are recognised when the Charity has been notified in writing of both the amount and settlement date. In the event that a donation is subject to conditions that require a level of performance by the Charity before the Charity is entitled to the funds, the income is deferred and not recognised until either those conditions are fully met, or the fulfilment of those conditions is wholly within the control of the Charity and it is probable that these conditions will be fulfilled in the reporting period. Legacy gifts are recognised on a case by case basis following the grant of probate when the administrator/executor for the estate has communicated in writing both the amount and settlement date. In the event that the gift is in the form of an asset other than cash or a financial asset traded on a recognised stock exchange, recognition is subject to the value of the gift being reliably measurable with a degree of reasonable accuracy and the title to the asset having been transferred to the Charity- Grants receivable Grants are recognised when the Charity has an entitlement to the funds and any conditions linked to the grants have been met. Where performance conditions are attached to the grant and are yet to be met, the income is recognised as a liability and included on the balance sheet as deferred income to be released. Deferred income Deferred income represents amounts received for future periods and is released to incoming resources in the period for which, it has been received. Such income is only deferred when.. 33 Go Beyond Annual Report and Accounts 2023 Notes to the Financial Statements Year Ended 31 December 2023 The donor specifies that the grant or donation must only be used in future accounting periods,. or The donor has imposed conditions which must be met before the Charity has unconditional entitlement. Donated services and facilities Donated professional services and donated facilities are recognised as income when the Charity has control over them, any conditions associated with the donated item have been met, the receipt of economic benefit can be measured reliably. In accordance with the Charities SORP IFRS1021, the general volunteer time is not recognised. Please refer to the Trustees, annual report for more information about their contribution. On receipt, donated professional seNices and donated facilities are recognised on the basis of the value of the gift to the Charity. This is the amount the Charity would have been willing to pay to obtain services or facilities of equivalent economic benefit on the open market; a corresponding amount is then recognised in expenditure in the period of receipt. Gift aid Income tax recoverable in relation to (4onations received under Gift Aid or deeds of covenant is recognised at the time of the donation. Investment income Dividends are recognised once the dividend has been declared and notification has been received of the dividend due. Expenditure All expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to that expenditure, it is probable settlement is required and the amount can be measured reliably. All costs are allocated to the applicable expenditure heading that aggregate similar costs to that category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated on a basis consistent with the use of resources, with central staff costs allocated on the basis of time spent, and depreciation charges allocated on the portion of the asset's use. Raising funds Costs of raising funds comprise fundraising staff salaries, and costs associated with fundraising events which the Charity organises in order to raise funds for respite breaks. Charitsble activities Charitable expenditure comprises those costs incurred by the Charity in the delivery of its activities and services for its beneficiaries. It includes both costs that can be allocated directly to such activities and those costs of an indirect nature necessary to support them. Support costs Support costs are those functions that assist the work of the Charity but do not directly undertake charitable activities. Support costs include Head Office costs, finance, personnel. payroll and governance costs which supports the Charity's respite breaks. These costs have been disclosed separately in note 8 to the financial statements and have been included within expenditure on charitable activities on the Statement of Financial Activities. 34 Go Beyond Annual Report and Accounts 2023 Notes to the Financial Statements Year Ended 31 December 2023 Government grants Government grants are recognised based on the accrual model and are measured at the fair value of the asset received or receivable. Grants are classified as relating either to revenue or to assets. Grants relating to revenue are recognised in income over the period in which the related costs are recognised. Grants relating to assets are recognised over the expected useful life of the asset. Where part of a grant relating to an asset is deferred, it is recognised as deferred income. Taxation The Charity 15 considered to pass the tests set out in Paragraph 1 Schedule 6 of the Finance Act 2010 and therefore it meets the definition of a charitable company for UK corporation tax purposes. Accordingly, the Charity is potentially exempt from taxation in respect of income or capital gains received within categories covered by Chapter 3 Part 11 of the Corporation Tax Art 2010 or Section 256 of the Taxation of Chargeable Gains Act 1992, to the extent that such income or gains are applied exclusively to charitsble purposes. Tangible fixed assets Individual fixed assets costing £2,000 or more are initially recorded at cost, less any subsequent accumulated depreciation and subsequent accumulated impairment losses. Depreciation and amortisation Depreciation is provided on tangible fixed assets so as to write off the cost or valuation, less any estimated residual value, over their expected useful economic life as follows.. Asset class Freehold buildings Freehold land Plant & machinery Motor vehicles Office equipment Depreciation method and rate 2-10% straight line Not depreciated 10-20% straight line 14% straight line 207ts Straight line Impairment of fixed assets At each reporting date an assessment will be made of whether there is any indicator of impairment. If there is an indicator of impairment properties will either be individually assessed or assessed as part of a scheme. Where there is evidence of impairment, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated which will be the higher of value in use and fair value less costs to sell. SORP 2019 states that the definition of EUV-SH in the RICS Valuation Standards indicates that this method of valuation would provide a fair value as defined in FRS 102 and therefore this is used to determine fair value. The SORP considers that depreciated replacement costs will provide a reasonable estimate of value in use, this is calculated as the lower of the cost of constructing an equivalent asset or acquiring an equivalent asset on the open market. The recoverable amount is compared to the carrying amount of the property or scheme. The carrying amount is calculated as the net book value less any unamortised grant in the Statement of Financial Position relating to the property or scheme. 35 Go Beyond Annual Report and Accounts 2023 Notes to the Financial Statements Year Ended 31 December 2023 If the recoverable amount of a property or scheme is less than the carrying value the difference (the impairment) will be charged to the Statement of Financial Activity and split between the relevant reserves. If in future years the impairment no longer applies, it will be taken out from the Statement of Financial Activitiy. The amount reinstated will be limited to an amount that brings the property or scheme back to its original carrying value. Current asset investments Current asset investments are included at the lower of cost and net realisable value / market value. Stock Stock is valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value, after due regard for obsolete and slow moving stocks. Trade debtors Trade and other debtors are recognised at the settlement amount due after any trade discount offered. Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid net of any discounts due. Cash and cash equivalents Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand, and other short-term highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to a known amount of cash and are subject to an insignificant risk of change in value. Trade creditors Trade creditors are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of business from suppliers. Accounts payable are classified as current liabilities if the Charity does not have an unconditional right, at the end of the reporting period, to defer settlement of the creditor for at least twelve months after the reporting date. If there is an unconditional right to defer settlement for at least twelve months after the reporting date, they are presented as non-current liabilities. Dilapidation provision A charity must recognise a liability for a legal or constructive obligation as a provision when either the timing or the amount of the future expenditure required to settle the obligation is uncertain. The charity recognises a dilapidations provision when there is a future obligation relating to the maintenance of leasehold properties. The provision is based on the Trustees, best estimate of the obligation which forms part of the charity's unavoidable cost of meeting its obligations under the lease contracts. Provisions Provisions are recognised when the Charity has an obligation at the reporting date as a result of a past event, it is probable that the Charity will be required to settle that obligation and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. Fund structure Unrestricted income funds are general funds that are available for use at the Trustees, discretion in furtherance of the objectives of the group. 36 Go Beyond Annual Report and Accounts 2023 Notes to the Financial Statements Year Ended 31 December 2023 Designated funds are unrestricted funds set aside for specific purposes at the discretion of the Trustees. Restricted income funds are those donated for use in a particular area or for specific purposes, the use of which is restricted to that area or purpose. Pensions and other post retirement obligations The Charity operates a money purchase defined contribution scheme. The contributions made for the accounting period and treated as an expenses were £21,61812022.. £17,858). Financial instruments Classification The Charity holds the following financial instruments.. Short term trade and other debtors and creditors; Cash and bank balances. All financial instruments are classified as basic. Recognition and measurement The Charity has chosen to apply the recognition and measurement principles in FRS102. Financial instruments are recognised when the company becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument and derecognised when in the case of assets, the contractual rights to cash flows from the assets expire or substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership are transferred to another party, or in the case of liabilities, when the company's obligations are discharged, expire or are cancelled. Such instruments are initially measured at transaction price, including transaction costs, and are subsequently carried at the undiscounted amount of the cash or other consideration expected to be paid or received. after taking account of impairment adjustments. 37 Go Beyond Annual Report and Accounts 2023 Notes to the Financial Statements Year Ended 31 December 2023 3 Income from donations and legacies Unrestricted general funds Restricted funds Totsl 2023 Totsl 2022 Donations and legacies,.
