Avenue, Stockport.
Head Forward Centre continues to welcome enquiries and new referrals from Adult Social Car8,
Occupational therapists, private individuals and Brain Injury Case Managets.
Premises
Our fijlly accessible premises are on Ihe ground floor of Withington Methodist Church. The
accommodation is well-appointed, afthough some of our activities are limited due to Jack of space, We
have signs on the entrance gale form the high street and the wall adjacent to our external front door to
make it easier for people to find us and will greet attendees at the entrance or in the car park to assist
them as needed. We have intercom access lo the front entrance and ask attendees to call us if they are
arriving via the car park on their first visrt so we can meet them at the rear entrance.
The security gate and video security camera on the entran￿ door are very effective safety measures
for access to our premises on the Church's ground floor - we can see prospectNe visitors and redirect
stray visitors to other services which operate from the Church. Our premises con5isI of an administration
office, an art & craft room. a kitchenette. a relaxation room. and a main actNty area and accessible
toilet. The main area has 1 pool table, with additional space for group activities such as as chair-based
exercises, games and group discussions. The relaxation room is also used to hold meetings ff the
administralion office ts unavailable or unsuitabl8.
The Trustees have now entered into a tenancy at WIK with the Church to be reviewed quarterly, at a
reduced rent of £2.000 per quarter including all utilities, This was a necessty as the local NHS Trust
withdrew funding of our rent when their lease ended in October 2023, which is a significant change for
the charity to navigate after over 20 years oflhe previous arrangement being in place. This arrangement
will be kept under regular review by the Trustees who will explore altemative options for new premises
and will seek to enter into a permanent lease either with the Church or elsewhere, when all potentral
affordable avenues have been investigated.

Accounting policies (continuedj
Fund accounting
Fund accounting is applied to any restrrted income that is received in Ihe year. The restricted
income is allocated to specific expenditure as per the temis of the donor.
Unrestricted funds are available for use at the discretK)n of the trustees in furtherance of the
charitable objectives of the charity.

entitled to the income and the amount can be quantified with reasonab5e accuracy. The following
specific policies are applied to particular categories of income=
Voluntary income by way of grants, donations and gifts are included when receivable. Grants
where entitlement is not conditional on the delivery of a sp8cffic performance by the oharity are
recognised when the charity becomes unconditionally entitled to the grant.
Donated services and facilities are included at the value to the charity where this can be quantified.
The value of service5 provided by volunteers has not been included.
Interest receivable
Interest on funds hekj on deposit is included when receivable and the amount can be measured
reliably by the charity- this is normally upon notrfication of the interest paid or payable by the 8ank.
Resources expended
Expenditure is recognised on an accrual basis as a liability is incurred. Expenditure includes any
VAT which cannot be fully recovered. and is reported as part of the expenditure to which it relates.
Cost of generating funds comprise the costs associated with attracting voluntary income. they are

Accounting policies (contlnuedl
Tangible assets
Tangible assets are initialSy recorded at cost, and subsequently stated at cost less any accumulated
depreciation and impairment losses. Any tangible assets carried at revalued amounts are recorded
at the fair value at the date of revaluation less any subsequent accumulated depreciation and
subsequent accumulated impaimient losses.
An increase in the carrying amount of an asset as a result of a revaluation. is recognis8d in other
recognised gains and losses. unless it reverses a charge for impaimient that has previously been
recognised as expendrture within the statement of financial activities. A decrease in the carrying
amount of an assel as a result of revaluation. is recognised in other recognised gains and losses,
except to which it offsets any previous ￿valUation gain, in which case the loss is shown wlthin
other recognised gains and losses on the statement of financial activities.
Depreciation
Depreciation is calculated so as to wrtte off the cost or valuation of an asset, less ts residual value,
over the useful economic lrfe of that asset as follows=
Equipment
250A straight line
Impainnent of fixed assets
A review for indicators of impaimient is carried out at each reporting date, with the recoverable
amount being estimated where such indicators exist. Where the carrying value exceeds the
recoverable amount, the asset is impaired accordingly. Prior impairments are also reviewed for
possible reversal al each reporting date.
For the purposes of impaiment testing. when it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount
of an individual asset, an estimate is made of the recoverable amounl of the cash-generaling unit
to which the asset belongs. The cash-generating unit is the smallest identrfiable group of assets
that includes the asset and generates cash infk)ws that largely independent of the cash inflows
from other assets or groups of assets.
Financial instruments
The Charty only has financial assets and financial liabilities of a kind that qualify as basic financial
instruments. Basic financial instruments are initially recognised at transaction value and
subsequently measured at their s8ttlement value with the exception of bank loans which are
subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effectNe interest method.

reporting date in which the employees render the relaled service, the liability is measured on a
discounted present value basis. The unwinding of the dbscount is recognised as an expense in the
period in which it arises.
