TRENT COMPASSION TRUST (a company limited by guarantee)
TRUSTEES' REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2025
The trustees present their annual report together with the audited financial statements of the company for the year from 1 July 2024 to 30 June 2025. The annual report serves the purposes of both a trustees' report and a directors' report under company law. The trustees confirm that the annual report and financial statements of the charitable company comply with the current statutory requirements, the requirements of the charitable company's governing document and the provisions of the Statement of Recommended Practice (SORP) applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS102) (effective 1 January 2019).
Since the company qualifies as small under section 382 of the Companies Act 2006, the strategic report required of medium and large companies under the Companies Act 2006 (Strategic Report and Directors' Report) Regulations 2013 has been omitted.
Objectives and activities
a. Policies and objectives
In 2019 Trent Compassion Trust was created to include additional existing Trent Vineyard activities with the aim of giving individuals not only immediate emergency support at a point of crisis, but also community and support to achieve lasting change. With over 250 volunteers, mainly from Trent Vineyard, Trent Compassion Trust is able to reach out to over 4,000 vulnerable people per year, taking referrals from over 100 organisations in Nottingham.
Trent Vineyard is a large contemporary church in Nottingham with a vision to serve and help those in need, and help the disadvantaged and socially excluded members of society in Nottingham. Since 2001 a number of different projects to this end were established by the church including the Arches, Soup Run and Step Forward Debt Advice (previously known as Trent Debt Advice).
In setting objectives and planning for activities, the trustees have given due consideration to general guidance published by the Charity Commission relating to public benefit, including the guidance 'Public benefit: running a charity (PB2)'.
Achievements and performance
a. Review of activities
There are 7 main areas where we provide support across Nottinghamshire:
1. Provide practical support – Practical provision
Our aim through The Arches project is to meet people’s urgent practical needs, focusing on clients moving into empty properties and supporting them with essential furniture and household goods to ensure they have an acceptable standard of living. They might have recently been housed with very little, be fleeing from domestic violence or seeking asylum.
We work with a range of organisations across our city to support those in needs using our referral service to ensure we can support as many people as we can.
The majority of the furniture we provide is freely donated and this year Vale Clearances, a house moving company, has been one of our biggest supporters, bringing us van loads of furniture from their house clearances so we can assist the people we serve.
The following story shows the impact we have been able to make for one person in our city as shared by their

support worker:
‘I wanted to share an update and express our appreciation for your support with Neal (name changed). He called this afternoon to let us know that the bed has been delivered and that he is extremely grateful for all the items provided. He mentioned that his home has been furnished with everything he needed—and even more—thanks to your assistance.
He asked us to pass on his thanks for accepting his referral and the excellent service. Thank you once again for making this possible and for the incredible support you’ve provided to help Neal settle into his new home. He said it's his Christmas that came early.’
NCHA Housing Support worker (name changed)
We continue to be committed to doing all we can to meet the needs of our community and are partnering with other charities and organisations to get essential supplies, including food, to those in need.
In addition to this we have also partnered with Hope Nottingham (Charity 1161248) to support the foodbank network utilising our building and logistics capabilities to store large food donations easing the pressure on storage at many of the foodbanks themselves.
2. Providing practical provision out in the city- Soup Run
Our teams go into Nottingham city centre to provide hot drinks and snacks for those sleeping rough. The Soup Run happens 3 times a week on Tuesday, Thursday and Friday. Alongside offering the food we also provide essential winter clothing (woolly hats, gloves and thermal socks) as well as offering prayer (including prayer for healing) if they would like to receive it – basically bringing the church to the streets. We can’t meet every need so we also signpost those we meet to other city food provisions and support services for rough sleepers and the homeless.
3. Providing community and life skills for refugees
We provide meeting spaces and organise meetings to gather refugees on the margins of society within our city, especially those experiencing isolation so that they can experience being part of a community within Trent Compassion. We are then able to provide life-skills sessions to help them on their journey of integration into wider society.
This is facilitated in a number of ways such as:
-
Iranian group – within the life of Trent Vineyard church, an Iranian Small Group meets mid-week to pray, worship and read the bible, to help them grow in faith and be part of community. Some of those connecting with us, we have been able to house through the charity Hope Into Action (HIA) who we partner with. We are now also seeing a number of the Iranian community regularly volunteer for Trent Compassion and as a result of this, are integrating and learning English.
-
Refugee Football- We started hosting football weekly on Monday nights in January 2023 for men who are asylum seekers, isolated in hotels in the north of the city. This group is growing, with 50-60 joining per week to play football and we are seeing them thrive in the community.
-
Nottingham Citizens - We are part of the Nottingham Citizens Migrant Justice team (which focuses on advocacy and campaigning to support migrants, refugees, and asylum seekers). Throughout the year we’ve
Page 3

TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2025
Achievements and performance (continued)
been involved in a number of citizen actions and joined with volunteers across the city to support 3 Afghan families being placed in Nottingham through a Citizens national scheme.
4. Provide community in prisons
We have seen an increasingly positive working relationship with four of our local prisons, HMP Foston Hall (women’s prison), HMP Nottingham Prison, HMP Whatton and (as of spring 2025) HMP Lowdham Grange. The purpose of our visits is to develop community and professional relationships with the prisoners and deliver Sunday services with them once a month.
We support HMP Whatton with their Black History Month services and HMP Foston Hall with Christmas carol services and carol singing around the wings each year. We also continue to support chaplaincy-led prison visits to HMP Foston Hall.
Additionally we also support prisoners identified to us by re-settlement teams when coming to Nottingham upon their release from prison to help them integrate back into community and society.
We are now looking at how we can offer further support to individuals identified as heading towards Nottingham after release from prison, helping them reintegrate into society and not go back to the re-offending cycle.
5. Provide financial assistance
We have been providing Debt Management support for over 20 years, in affiliation with Community Money Advice and Advice UK, meeting our desire to respond to specific needs around financial poverty, debt and money worries. Since 2011, when we renamed the project Step Forward Money Advice, it has helped people living in Nottinghamshire and surrounding regions. We seek to give people hope and non-judgemental practical support, whatever their background, circumstances or beliefs. We deliver this help through a combination of money management training courses and one-to-one casework support. People directly benefit from our support in four ways:
-
Practical help, via free money management training courses.
-
Free, professional debt, budgeting and money management advice.
-
Emotional support.
-
Signposting to other services and agencies.
Step Forward Money Advice is a free and friendly service open to anyone in need of budgeting or debt advice. It offers free, confidential debt advice and money management support. Some of the feedback from clients include:
‘Extremely helpful compassionate staff. Nothing is too much trouble for them.” “Kind, empathetic. Could not have managed without their advice and help.” “The prayers at the end were a joy and immensely encouraging.”
6. Provide ongoing support - Step Forward Housing
As we continue to partner with the charity Hope into Action, who work with local churches to provide homes and support for people experiencing homelessness, we have been able to help furnish 5 properties and support residents at those houses. Our role is to provide friendship, community and support for the tenants. We do this through a weekly programme of activities and group sessions aimed at assisting them to reintegrate into
Page 4
TRENT COMPASSION TRUST (a company limited by guarantee)
TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2025
Achievements and performance (continued)
community.
Our tenants can stay in the houses for a period of anywhere between 3 months to 2 years. While they are with us they will participate in our Employability Programme at Trent Compassion.
-
House one – supports male Iranian refugees. They come to stay in the house once they have their right to remain in the UK and before any of their families come to join them.
-
House two – supports men at the end of their rehabilitation programme and on leaving who require housing to support them with integrating back into community away from where they came from as they are more likely to go back to old patterns and habits. We work with The Carpenter’s Arms and Teen Challenge charities to provide that option for people as they leave the rehabilitation programme.
-
House three – supports a family that was homeless.
-
House four – supports men leaving their rehabilitation programme or who have come out of prison.
-
House five – supports women leaving prison or Exaireo rehabilitation centre.
7. Provide ongoing support – Step Forward Employability
The purpose of the programme is to work alongside people who have multiple barriers that prevent or limit them from seeking work, particularly for those who have been marginalised in society for various reasons and may need intensive support to prepare them for seeking work. Our vision is to empower the participants through employability training and life skills workshops to work towards becoming employed.
We prepare each participant who is presently unemployed to work towards getting back into work or for those who are long term unemployed or have never worked, through our training programme to work towards employment.
The programme is made up of training workshops, mentoring sessions and volunteering. Participants commit to the programme and invest in themselves. At the beginning of each contract the programme leader completes an assessment in order to establish where they are currently and where they would like to be. We assess any potential challenges or obstacles that could get in the way of them getting the most from the programme and what support they may require from us or others in order to achieve their goals. Each participant is then given a bespoke development plan with an overarching goal that they would like to achieve that is reviewed regularly with their mentor and the programme leader.
All our participants have grown in self-confidence, living a healthier, balanced lifestyle and are engaging with volunteering and some have found employment. Some participants have also moved on from supported living to live independently in private rented accommodation. Each participant has an updated CV, and some have integrated in to the church joining the small group gathering that meet mid-week as well as getting involved in serving at the church.
We also run monthly external workshops at two drug and alcohol rehabilitation providers, The Carpenter’s Arms and Exaireo. Workshop feedback from one participant:
“I enjoyed feeling accepted and able to contribute without feeling judged."
We have seen some wonderful and life-changing things happen at Trent Compassion and many stories to tell from the past year.

TRENT COMPASSION TRUST (a company limited by guarantee)
TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2025
Achievements and performance (continued)
-
The number of clients visiting us to access practical provision was 822. These have come from over 100 different organisations.
-
We have had 1,843 interactions with homeless on the streets of Nottingham, with the team seeing regular faces and building relationships, offering prayer and support.
-
Step Forward Employability has started to run external workshops, going out to Exaireo and Carpenter’s Arms. At the Carpenter’s Arms there is an average of 18 men on each workshop. The workshop prepares them for moving on and getting ready for employment.
2 members on the programme are currently working part-time and 1 former member is now working full-time for TV Conferencing Ltd (the trading subsidiary of Trent Vineyard).
-
Our restoration project volunteer team have restored 30 large items of furniture which have then gone on to be sold in the Trent Compassion Trust "Attic shop."
-
The Attic Shop turnover was a healthy £27,000 last year and the profits from this go towards supporting the work of the Trust.
-
The prison ministry team have baptised 8 people. These church baptisms are led by Trent Vineyard pastors/chaplains. There is an average of 120 prisoners coming along each month to attend our church services that we provide in the prisons.
-
Step Forward Money Advice – cumulatively we have been able to help clients that have had a total debt of £3.64m. The average debt per person was £12,200.
-
We have seen 298 clients, 82 of which had children. We were able to assist 99 clients to see their debts totally written off, giving them a clean slate and 104 of them are in the process of gradually clearing their debts.
-
We have run 3 money management courses throughout the year enabling 21 people to receive help with budgeting techniques – learning to tell their money where to go rather than wondering where it went.
Financial review
a. Going concern
After making appropriate enquiries, the trustees have a reasonable expectation that the company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. For this reason, they continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements.
Page 6
TRENT COMPASSION TRUST (a company limited by guarantee)
TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2025
b. Reserves policy
The trustees agree that it is prudent for the Trust to maintain reserves capable of covering six months’ worth of running costs to mitigate any risk of a drop in funding. This will provide the scope for any necessary, but unforeseen capital expenditure which may arise. It is estimated that to meet this requirement, £45,000 in free reserves should be an appropriate target.
The trustees report that the free reserves position is healthy to cover our reserves requirement.
c. Principal risks and uncertainties
The trustees are aware of their obligations regarding risk assessment and management. The trustees are satisfied that the necessary procedures and systems to mitigate risks are in operation.
d. Principal funding
We received £19,900 in funding from Love Your Neighbour, to spend on food and food-related costs/ activity.
We also received just over £14,000 from Hope Debt Advice, which enabled us to continue to provide staffing and additional support related to debt advice.
We received £25,000 from Garfield Weston towards core costs and a further £30,600 was received from external grant funders and organisations.
The trustees report that the overall finances are in a good position at the end of June 2025.
Trent Vineyard continues to provide the majority of funding for the charity.
Income for the year totalled £429,204.
Structure, governance and management
a. Constitution
Trent Compassion Trust is registered as a charitable company limited by guarantee and was set up by a Memorandum of Association.
b. Methods of appointment or election of trustees
The management of the company is the responsibility of the trustees who are elected and co-opted under the terms of the Memorandum of Association.
c. Organisational structure and decision-making policies
The day-to-day running is delegated to a number of staff who are employed by Trent Vineyard Church, along with several volunteers, the majority of whom are members of Trent Vineyard Church.
Trent Compassion Trust is also a subsidiary charity of Trent Vineyard.

STATEMENT OF TRUSTEES' RESPONSIBILITIES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2025
The trustees (who are also the directors of the company for the purposes 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 . Under company law, the trustees must not approve the financial statements unless they are satisfied that they give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the company and of its incoming resources and application of resources, including its income and expenditure, for that period. In preparing these financial statements, the trustees are required to:
-
select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
-
observe the methods and principles of the Charities SORP (FRS 102);
-
make judgements and accounting estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
-
state whether applicable UK Accounting Standards (FRS 102) have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements;
-
prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the company will continue in business.
The trustees are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that are sufficient to show and explain the company's transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the company 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 company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF TRENT COMPASSION TRUST
Opinion
We have audited the financial statements of Trent Compassion Trust (the 'charitable company') for the year ended 30 June 2025 which comprise the statement of financial activities, the balance sheet, the statement of cash flows and the related notes, 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 30 June 2025 and of its incoming resources and application of resources, including its income and expenditure 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 charitable company in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the United Kingdom, including the Financial Reporting Council'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 charitable company'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.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF TRENT COMPASSION TRUST (CONTINUED)
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.
Opinion on other matters prescribed by the Companies Act 2006
In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of the audit:
-
the information given in the Trustees' Report for the financial year for which the financial statements are prepared is consistent with the financial statements.
-
the Trustees' Report has been prepared in accordance with applicable legal requirements.
Matters on which we are required to report by exception
In the light of our knowledge and understanding of the charitable company and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the Trustees' Report.
We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which 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' Report and from the requirement to prepare a Strategic Report.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF TRENT COMPASSION TRUST (CONTINUED)
Responsibilities of trustees
As explained more fully in the trustees' responsibilities statement, the trustees (who are also the directors of the charitable company for the purposes 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 charitable company'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:
As part of our planning process:
-
We enquired of management the systems and controls the company has in place, the areas of the financial statements that are mostly susceptible to the risk of irregularities and fraud, and whether there was any known, suspected or alleged fraud. The company did not inform us of any known, suspected or alleged fraud.
-
We obtained an understanding of the legal and regulatory frameworks applicable to the company. We determined that the following were most relevant: FRS 102, Companies Act 2006 and the Charities SORP.
-
We considered the incentives and opportunities that exist in the company, including the extent of management bias, which present a potential for irregularities and fraud to be perpetuated, and tailored our risk assessment accordingly.
-
Using our knowledge of the company, together with the discussions held with the company at the planning stage, we formed a conclusion on the risk of misstatement due to irregularities including fraud and tailored our procedures according to this risk assessment.
The key procedures we undertook to detect irregularities including fraud during the course of the audit included:
-
Obtaining third-party confirmation of material bank balances.
-
Identifying and testing journal entries and the overall accounting records, in particular those that were significant and unusual.
-
Reviewing the financial statement disclosures and determining whether accounting policies have been appropriately applied.
-
Documenting and verifying all significant related party balances.
Page 12
TRENT COMPASSION TRUST (a company limited by guarantee)
INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF TRENT COMPASSION TRUST (CONTINUED)
-
Reviewing documentation such as the company board minutes for discussions of irregularities including fraud.
-
Testing key revenue lines, in particular cut-off, for evidence of management bias.
Owing to the inherent limitations of an audit, there is an unavoidable risk that we may not have detected some material misstatements in the financial statements even though we have properly planned and performed our audit in accordance with auditing standards. The primary responsibility for the prevention and detection of irregularities and fraud rests with the directors of the entity.
A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located on the Financial Reporting Council's website at: 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 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 company and its members, as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102) - 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 Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Companies Act 2006.
Trent Compassion Trust 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.
1.2 Going concern
We have increased or added some services to respond to the emerging needs across the city; such as being a storage and distribution centre for food banks, which has enabled us to continue to support people in need, albeit in a different way. After reviewing the finances the trustees have a reasonable expectation that the company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. For this reason, they continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements.
1.3 Income
All income is recognised once the company has entitlement to the income, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount of income receivable can be measured reliably.
Where the donated good is a fixed asset, it is measured at fair value, unless it is impractical to measure this reliably, in which case the cost of the item to the donor should be used. The gain is recognised as income from donations and a corresponding amount is included in the appropriate fixed asset class and depreciated over the useful economic life in accordance with the company's accounting policies.
On receipt, donated professional services and facilities are recognised on the basis of the value of the gift to the company which is the amount it 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.
Income tax recoverable in relation to donations received under Gift Aid or deeds of covenant is recognised at the time of the donation.

1. Accounting policies (continued)
1.4 Expenditure
Expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to transfer economic benefit to a third party, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is classified by activity. The costs of each activity are made up of the total of direct costs and shared costs, including support costs involved in undertaking each activity. Direct costs attributable to a single activity are allocated directly to that activity. Shared costs which contribute to more than one activity and support costs which are not attributable to a single activity are apportioned between those activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources. Central staff costs are allocated on the basis of time spent, and depreciation charges allocated on the portion of the asset’s use.
Expenditure on raising funds includes all expenditure incurred by the company to raise funds for its charitable purposes and includes costs of all fundraising activities events and non-charitable trading.
Expenditure on charitable activities is incurred on directly undertaking the activities which further the company's objectives, as well as any associated support costs.
All expenditure is inclusive of irrecoverable VAT.
1.5 Interest receivable
Interest on funds held on deposit is included when receivable and the amount can be measured reliably by the company; this is normally upon notification of the interest paid or payable by the institution with whom the funds are deposited.
1.6 Taxation
The company is 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 company 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 Act 2010 or Section 256 of the Taxation of Chargeable Gains Act 1992, to the extent that such income or gains are applied exclusively to charitable purposes.
1.7 Tangible fixed assets and depreciation
Tangible fixed assets costing £500 or more are capitalised and recognised when future economic benefits are probable and the cost or value of the asset can be measured reliably.
Tangible fixed assets are initially recognised at cost. After recognition, under the cost model, tangible fixed assets are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses. All costs incurred to bring a tangible fixed asset into its intended working condition should be included in the measurement of cost.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2025
1. Accounting policies (continued)
1.7 Tangible fixed assets and depreciation (continued)
Depreciation is charged so as to allocate the cost of tangible fixed assets less their residual value over their estimated useful lives, using the straight-line method.
Depreciation is provided on the following basis:
Short-term leasehold property - 10% straight-line method Motor vehicles - 25% straight-line method Office equipment - 25% straight-line method Computer equipment - 33% straight-line method Other fixed assets - 25% straight-line method
1.8 Debtors
Trade and other debtors are recognised at the settlement amount after any trade discount offered. Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid net of any trade discounts due.
1.9 Cash at bank and in hand
Cash at bank and in hand includes cash and short-term highly liquid investments with a short maturity of three months or less from the date of acquisition or opening of the deposit or similar account.
1.10 Liabilities and provisions
Liabilities are recognised when there is an obligation at the balance sheet date as a result of a past event, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefit will be required in settlement, and the amount of the settlement can be estimated reliably.
Liabilities are recognised at the amount that the company anticipates it will pay to settle the debt or the amount it has received as advanced payments for the goods or services it must provide.
Provisions are measured at the best estimate of the amounts required to settle the obligation. Where the effect of the time value of money is material, the provision is based on the present value of those amounts, discounted at the pre-tax discount rate that reflects the risks specific to the liability. The unwinding of the discount is recognised in the statement of financial activities as a finance cost.
1.11 Financial instruments
The company 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 settlement value with the exception of bank loans which are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.

1.12 Concessionary loans
Concessionary loans are loans which are made or received at below the prevailing market rate of interest, that are not repayable on demand and are for the purposes of furthering the objectives of Trent Compassion Trust.
Loans are recorded in the financial statements at the amount received or paid.
1.13 Fund accounting
General funds:
These funds are available for use at the discretion of the trustees in furtherance of the general objectives of the company.
Restricted funds:
These funds are used in accordance with any specific restrictions outlined by the donor and prioritise the relief of human suffering by tackling poverty and improving the life chances of people on minimal incomes in Nottingham.
Investment income, gains and losses are allocated to the appropriate fund.
2. General information
Trent Compassion Trust is a company limited by guarantee, registered in England and Wales, registration number 04339357 and a charitable company registered with The Charity Commission, registration number 1091918.
3. Critical accounting estimates and areas of judgement
Estimates and judgements are continually evaluated and are based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.
Critical accounting estimates and assumptions:
The company makes estimates and assumptions concerning the future. The resulting accounting estimates and assumptions will, by definition, seldom equal the related actual results. The estimates and assumptions that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year are discussed below.
Critical areas of judgement:
Determining the appropriate rate of depreciation of tangible fixed assets requires an estimate of the useful economic life and ultimate net realisable value. The useful economic life is determined to be the period during which each asset will be usable.
