The Trustees 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).

In preparing these financial statements, the Trustees are required to: 

-  select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently; 

-  observe the methods and principles in the Charities SORP; 

-  make judgments and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;

## **1 JANUARY 2022 TO 31 DECEMBER 2022** 

## **NOTES TO THE ACCOUNTS** 

## **1 Accounting policies** 

## **1.1 Basis of preparing the financial statements** 

The financial statements of the Foundation, which is a public benefit entity, have been prepared in accordance with the Statement of Recommended Practice: Accounting and Reporting by 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), the Charities Act 2011 and UK Generally Accepted Practice as it applies from 1 January 2015. 

The financial statements have been prepared to give a ‘true and fair’ view and have departed from the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 only to the extent required to provide a ‘true and fair view’. This departure has involved following 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 issued in October 2019 rather than the Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice effective from 1 April 2005 which has since been withdrawn. 

## **1.2 Income** 

All income is recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities once the charity has entitlement of the funds, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably. 

## **1.3 Expenditure** 

Liabilities are recognised as expenditure as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the Foundation to that expenditure, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement and the amounts of the obligation can be measured reliabily.  Expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all cost relating to the category.  Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated to activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources. 

## **1.4 Resources expended** 

All expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been included under expense categories that aggregate all costs for allocation to activities.  Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular activities they have been allocated on a basis consistent with the use of the resources. 

i) Costs of generating funds This comprises expenditure incurred in connection with generating funds for charity. ii) Charitable activities This comprises expenditure incurred in connection with the charitable objectives of the charity. iii) Governance costs This comprises expenditure incurred in connection with management and administration of the charity. 

## **1.5 Direct Taxation** 

As a charity the Foundation is generally exempt from income tax and capital gains tax, but not from VAT. Irrecoverable VAT is included in the cost of those to which it relates. 

## **1.6 Investments** 

Investments are held at market value insofar as they are capable of measurement.  The realised and unrealised gains or losses are shown in the Statement of Financial Activities.

## **COOMBE-TENNANT FOUNDATION TRUSTEES' REPORT & FINANCIAL STATEMENTS** 

## **1 JANUARY 2022 TO 31 DECEMBER 2022** 

## **NOTES TO THE ACCOUNTS** 

## **1.7 Fund accounting** 

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

## **1.8 Cash** 

Cash at bank and in hand is held to meet short-term cash commitments as they fall due rather than for investment purposes. 

## **1.9 Debtors** 

Debtors (including loans receivable) are measured on initial recognition at settlement amount.  They are shown in the financial statements at the cash or other consideration expected to be received. 

## **1.10 Going Concern** 

Tha accounts have been prepared on a going concern basis and there are no material uncertainties. 

## **1.11 Developments in the year** 

On 30 January 2020 the World Health Organisation declared the outbreak of the Coronavirus (Covid-19) pandemic to be a public health emergency of international concern. 

Since the year-end, due to the global impact of the Coronavirus (Covid-19) pandemic, the value of investments, assets and liabilities have been impacted. It is not possible, at this time, to quantify the change in market value in a meaningful way, due to ongoing volatility as the situation is fluid and unpredictable. The board are reviewing the impact of the pandemic on the operations of the charity on a regular basis and are taking measures to ensure the risks faced are mitigated, which includes utilising the Government support measures. 

## **1.12 Creditors** 

The Foundation has creditors which are measured at settlement amounts. 

## **1.13 Financial instruments** 

The Foundation accounts for the basic financial instruments on initial recognition as per papagraph 10.7 FRS 102 SORP.  Subsequent measurement is per paragraphs 11.17 to 11.19 FRS 102 SORP.
