## **Details of The Independent Examiner** 

Fumi Popoola 

Member of Association of Chartered Certified Accountants 36A Goodmayes Road Ilford Essex IG3 9UR 

## **Statement of  the Directors Trustees' Responsibilities** 

The charity's trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the terms of  the Companies Act 2006, the Charities Act 2011 and the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008. Notwithstanding the explicit requirement in the extant statutory regulations,the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008, to prepare the financial statements in accordance with the SORP 2005, in view of the fact that the SORP 2005 has been withdrawn, the Trustees determined to interpret this responsibility as requiring them to follow current best practice and prepare the accounts according to the FRS 102 SORP (Statement of Recommended Practice for Accounting and Reporting by Charities)  2015, (as amended by the Bulletin issued in October 2018 and applicable to all accounting periods beginning on or after 1st January 2019), (The SORP), . 

In particular, the Companies Act 2006 and charity law require the Board of Trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity as at the end of the financial year and of the surplus or deficit of the charity. In preparing those financial statements the Board is required to :-

## **THE PEACE ALLIANCE** 

Company Registration Number - 04590842 

## **Trustees' Annual Report for the year ended 31 March 2024** 

- to prepare the accounts in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice (United Kingdom Accounting Standards and applicable law). 

- select suitable accounting policies and apply them consistently; 

- make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; 

- prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charity will continue in business; 

- state whether applicable accounting standards and statements of recommended practice have been followed, subject to any material 

- departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements; 

The law requires that the trustees must not approve the accounts unless they are satisfied that they give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity and of the surplus or deficit of the charity for the year. 

The Trustees are also responsible for maintaining adequate accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and which are sufficient to show and explain the charity's transactions and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006 and comply with regulations made under the Charities Act. 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. 

The Trustees are also responsible for the contents of the Trustees' report, and the statutory responsibility of the Independent Examiner in relation to the Trustees' report is limited to examining the report and ensuring that , on the face of the report, there are no material inconsistencies with the figures disclosed in the financial statements. 

## **Method of preparation of accounts - Small company provisions** 

The financial statements are set out on pages 8 to 20. The financial statements have been prepared implementing the FRS 102 SORP (Statement of Recommended Practice for Accounting and Reporting by Charities)  2015, (as amended by the Bulletin issued in October 2018 and applicable to all accounting periods beginning on or after 1st January 2019), (The SORP),   and in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard 102, 

These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the provisions in Part 15 of the Companies Act 2006. applicable to companies subject to the small companies regime. 

This report was approved by the board of trustees on 21 December 2024.

## **THE PEACE ALLIANCE** 

## **Report of the Independent Examiner to the Trustees of the charitable company on the accounts for the year ended 31 March 2024** 

I report to the Trustees on my examination of the financial statements of the charitable company on pages 8 to 20 for the year ended 31 March 2024 which have been prepared in accordance with the Charities Act 2011 (the Act) and with the Financial Reporting Standard 102, (effective 1st January 2016) as modified by FRS 102 SORP (Statement of Recommended Practice for Accounting and Reporting by Charities)  2015, (as amended by the Bulletin issued in October 2018 and applicable to all accounting periods beginning on or after 1st January 2019), (The SORP), published by the Charity Commission in England & Wales (CCEW) , and under the historical cost convention and the accounting policies set out on page 12. 

## **Respective responsibilities of the Trustees and the Independent Examiner and the basis of the report** 

As described on page 4, you, the charitable company's Trustees, who are also the Directors of the Company for the purposes of Company law, are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements in accordance with the Companies Act 2006, the Charities Act 2011 and all other applicable law and with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice, applicable to smaller entities, and for being satisfied that the financial statements give a true and fair view. 

The Trustees consider that the audit requirement of  Section 144(1) of the Charities Act 2011 (the Act) does not apply, and that there is no requirement in the memorandum and articles of the charity for the conducting of an audit, and that the accounts do not require an audit in accordance with Part 16 of the Companies Act 2006 and that no member or members have requested an audit pursuant to Section 476 of the Companies Act 2006. As a consequence, the Trustees have elected that the financial statements be subject to independent examination. 

Having satisfied myself that the financial statements are not required to be audited under any legal provision, or otherwise, and are eligible for independent examination, it is my responsibility to:- 

a) examine the financial statements of the charity under Section 145 of the Act; 

b) follow the applicable procedures in the Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Act. 

## **Basis of Independent Examiner's Statement and scope of work undertaken** 

I report in respect of my examination of the charity's financial statements carried out under s145 of the Act. In carrying out my examination, I have followed all the applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Act setting out the duties of an independent examiner in relation to the conducting of an independent examination.  An independent examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charitable company  and of the accounting systems employed by the charitable company and a comparison of the financial statements presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the financial statements, and seeking explanations from you, as Trustees, concerning such matters. The purpose of the examination is to establish as far as possible that there have been no breaches of charity legislation and that, on a test basis of evidence relevant to the amounts and disclosures made, the financial statements comply with the SORP. 

The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and information supplied by the Trustees in the course of the examination is not subjected to audit tests or enquiries and does not cover all the matters that an auditor would consider in arriving at an opinion. The planning and conduct of an audit goes beyond the limited assurance that an independent examination can provide 

6 



## **THE PEACE ALLIANCE** 

Consequently, I do not express an audit opinion on the view given by the financial statements, and in particular, I express no opinion as to whether the financial statements give a true and fair view of the affairs of the charity, and my report is limited to the matters set out in the statement below. 

I planned and performed my examination so as to satisfy myself that the objectives of the independent examination are achieved and before finalising the report I obtained written assurances from the Trustees of all material matters. 

## **Independent Examiner's Statement, Report and Opinion** 

Subject to the limitations upon the scope of my work as detailed above, I have completed my examination: and can confirm that:- 

The accounts of this charitable company  are not required to be audited under Part 16 of the Companies Act 2006; 

This  is a report in respect of an examination carried out under 145 of the Act  and in accordance with Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Act which may be applicable; 

and that no material matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe that in any material respect:- 

accounting records were not kept in respect of the charity as required by Section 386 of the Companies Act 2006 and Section 130 of The Charities Act 2011; 

the financial statements do not accord with those records; or 

the financial statements do not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the form and content of accounts set out in section 396 of the Companies Act 2006 other than any requirement that the accounts give a 'true and fair' view, which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination; 

have not been prepared in accordance with the methods and principles set out in the FRS 102 SORP (Statement of Recommended Practice for Accounting and Reporting by Charities)  2015, (as amended by the Bulletin issued in October 2018 and applicable to all accounting periods beginning on or after 1st January 2019), (The SORP). 

I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the financial statements to be reached.

## **THE PEACE ALLIANCE** 

## **Notes to the Accounts for the year ended 31 March 2024** 

## **1 Accounting policies** 

## _**Policies relating to the production of the accounts.**_ 

## **Basis of preparation and accounting convention** 

The accounts have been prepared on the accruals basis, under the historical cost convention, and in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard 102, (effective 1st January 2016) and 'FRS 102 SORP (Statement of Recommended Practice for Accounting and Reporting by Charities) 2015, (as amended by the Bulletin issued in October 2018 and applicable to all accounting periods beginning on or after 1st January 2019), (The SORP), published by the Charity Commission in England & Wales (CCEW) , effective January 2016, , and in accordance with all applicable law in the charity's jurisdiction of registration, except that the charity has prepared the financial statements in accordance with the FRS 102 SORP (Statement of Recommended Practice for Accounting and Reporting by Charities)  2015, (as amended by the Bulletin issued in October 2018 and applicable to all accounting periods beginning on or after 1st January 2019), (The SORP),  in preference to the previous SORP, the SORP 2005, which has been withdrawn, notwithstanding the fact that the extant statutory regulations, the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 refer explicitly to the SORP 2005. This has been done to accord with current best practice. 


## **Going Concern** 

The charitable activities are entirely dependent on continuing grant aid and voluntary donations as well as trading revenues. As a consequence, the going concern basis is dependent on the future flow of these uncertain funding streams. Accordingly, the Trustees have obtained forecasts and, after reviewing the financial forecasts for future periods to 31  March 2024, the Trustees are satisfied that, at the time of approving the financial statements, it is  appropriate  to adopt the going concern  basis  in preparing  the financial statements. Other than these matters, the Trustees are not aware of any material uncertainites about the charity's ability to continue as a going concern. 

## **Risks and future assumptions** 

The charity is a public benefit entity. 

## **Accounting for deferred income and income received in advance** 

Where terms and conditions relating to income have not been met or uncertainty exists as to whether the charity can meet any terms or conditions otherwise within its control, income is not recognised but is deferred as a liability until it is probable that the terms or conditions imposed can be met. 

Any grant that is subject to performance-related conditions received in advance of delivering the goods and services required by that condition, or is subject to unmet conditions wholly outside the control of the recipient charity, is accounted for as a liability and shown on the balance sheet as deferred income. Deferred income is released to income in the reporting period in which the performance-related or other conditions that limit recognition are met. 

When income from a grant or donation has not been recognised due to the conditions applying to the gift not being wholly within the control of the recipient charity, it is disclosed as a contingent asset if receipt of the grant or donation is probable once those conditions are met. 

12 



## **THE PEACE ALLIANCE** 

## **Notes to the Accounts for the year ended 31 March 2024** 

Where time related conditions are imposed or implied by a funder, then the income is apportioned to the time periods concerned,and, where applicable, is accounted for as a liability and shown on the balance sheet as deferred income. When grants are received in advance of the expenditure on the activity funded by them, but there are no specific time related conditions, then the income is not deferred. 

Any condition that allows for the recovery by the donor of any unexpended part of a grant does not prevent recognition of the income concerned, but a liability to any repayment is recognised when repayment becomes probable. 

## **Recognition of liabilities and expenditure** 

A liability, and the related expenditure, is recognised when a legal or constructive obligation exists as a result of a past event, and when it is more likely than not that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement, and when the amount of the obligation can be measured or reliably estimated.. 

Liabilities arising from future funding commitments and constructive obligations, including performance related grants, where the timing or the amount of the future expenditure required to settle the  obligation are uncertain, give rise to a provision in the accounts, which is reviewed at the accounting year end. The provision is increased to reflect any increases in liabilities, and is decreased by the utilisation of any provision within the period, and reversed if any provision is no longer required. These movements are charged or credited to the respective funds and activities to which the provision relates. 

## **Allocating costs to activities** 

Direct costs that are specifically related to an activity are allocated to that activity. Shared direct costs and support costs are apportioned between activities. 

The basis for apportionment, which is consistently applied, and proportionate to the circumstances, is :- 

**Staffing** - on the basis of time spent in connection with any particular activity. 

**Staffing** - on a per capita basis, based on the number of of people employed within any partiular activity. 

**Premises related costs** - on the proportion of floor area occupied by a particular activity. 

**Non specific support costs** - on the basis of the usage of resources, in terms of time taken, capacity used, request made or other measures 

**Estimation techniques** used in apportioning costs - give details 

## **Volunteers** 

In accordance with the SORP, and in recognition of the difficulties in placing a monetary value on the contribution from volunteers, the contribution of volunteers is not included within the income of the charity. 

However, the trustees value the significant contribution made to the activities of the charity by unpaid volunteers and this is described more fully in Note6.

## _**Policies relating to assets, liabilities and provisions and other matters.**_ 

## _**Tangible fixed assets**_ 

Tangible fixed assets are measured at their original cost value, or subsequent revaluation, or if donated, as described above. Cost value includes all costs expended in bringing the asset into its intended working condition. 

Depreciation has been provided at the following rates in order to write off the assets to their anticipated residual value over their estimated useful lives. 

Plant and machinery 20 % straight line Motor vehicles 25 % straight line 

A regular annual review of the likelihood of asset impairment is undertaken. 

## **Debtors** 

Debtors are measured at their recoverable amounts at the balance sheet date. 

## **Fund Accounting** 

Unrestricted funds are available for use at the discretion of the trustees in furtherance of the general objectives of the charity. 

Designated funds are unrestricted funds earmarked by the Trustees for particular purposes, and there are no designated funds for the charity. 

Restricted funds are subjected to restrictions on their expenditure imposed by the donor or through the terms of an appeal or as implied by law. 

There are no endowment funds. 

## **2[Liability to taxation]** 

The Trustees consider that the charity satisfies the tests set out in Paragraph 1 Schedule 6 of the Finance Act 2010 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 Act 2010 or Section 256 of the Taxation of Chargeable Gains Act 1992, to the extent that such income or gains are applied exclusively on the specific charitable objects of the charity and for no other purpose. Value Added Tax is not recoverable by the charity, and is therefore included in the relevant costs in the Statement of Financial Activities.

## **3 Winding up or dissolution of the charity** 

If upon winding up or dissolution of the charity there remain any assets, after the satisfaction of all debts and liabilities, the assets represented by the accumulated fund shall be transferred to some other charitable body or bodies having similar objects to the charity. 

## **4 Significance of financial instruments to the charity's position** 

The charity has no financial instruments. 

## **5 Net surplus before tax in the financial year**

## **6 The contribution of volunteers** 

The charity depends on the support of its volunteers, which is much appreciated. The charity had a number of volunteers and supporters that offered their time and skills to the charity.   The arrangements with volunteers are difficult to value precisely in monetary terms and have not been recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities. The volunteers and the charity accept and agree that  no contract  of employment  is created  by these arrangements. 

No employees received emoluments (excluding pension costs) in excess of £60,000 per annum. 

## **7 Remuneration and payments to Trustees and persons connected with them** 

No trustees or persons connected with them received any remuneration from the charity, or any related entity.
