Objectives and activities

(a) Strategies for Achieving Objectives

Achievements and performance

(b) Investment and Performance

It is important to maintain relationships with sources of funding and donors as well as maintaining The Horse Sanctuary (Tettenhall)'s good reputation and standing in the wider community.

Financial review

Reserves Policy

The Trustees endeavour to maintain a minimum of twelve months cover for the costs incurred for the feeding and bedding of the animals in their care. The Trustees wish to increase the reserves of the Charity to a level sufficient to ensure that the welfare of the animals is maintained and facilities are developed to fulfil all the charities objectives.

Activities for the year

The continuing economic climate is seeing more animals being abandoned and in need of shelter and food. The trustees have a policy, of not to refuse a home for a needy animal, but this policy is becoming more difficult to up hold with increasing costs of food and bedding.

The Charity has moved away from actively being involved in the upkeep of horses and donkeys, becoming a "grant making" charity.

During the year the charity made donations of £14,072 (2021: £4,184) to help towards the costs of looking after horses and donkeys.

3. Accounting policies (continued)

Goodwill

Goodwill is being amortised so as to write off the cost of goodwill over 5 years straight line basis.

Intangible assets

Other intangible assets consist of a website for the charity. Amortisation is calculated so as to write off the cost of the website over 5 years on a straight line basis.

Amortisation

Amortisation is calculated so as to write off the cost of an asset, less its estimated residual value, over the useful life of that asset as follows:

Goodwill - 20% straight line Website - 20% straight line

If there is an indication that there has been a significant change in amortisation rate, useful life or residual value of an intangible asset, the amortisation is revised prospectively to reflect the new estimates.

Tangible assets

Fixed assets are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation.

Depreciation

Depreciation is calculated so as to write off the cost or valuation of an asset, less its residual value, over the useful economic life of that asset as follows:

Shelter - 10% straight line Plant and Machinery - 15% reducing balance

Impairment of fixed assets

A review for indicators of impairment 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 at each reporting date.

For the purposes of impairment testing, when it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, an estimate is made of the recoverable amount of the cashgenerating unit to which the asset belongs. The cash-generating unit is the smallest identifiable group of assets that includes the asset and generates cash inflows that largely independent of the cash inflows from other assets or groups of assets.

For impairment testing of goodwill, the goodwill acquired in a business combination is, from the acquisition date, allocated to each of the cash-generating units that are expected to benefit from the synergies of the combination, irrespective of whether other assets or liabilities of the charity are assigned to those units.

Financial instruments

Financial Instruments are classified and accounted for according to the substance of the contractual arrangement, as either financial assets, financial liabilities or equity instruments. An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of the company after deducting all of its liabilities.
